Oklahoma football talent among very best in country, according to 247Sports

The Oklahoma football program will enter the 2023 season as one of a select group of teams that are capable of competing for a national championship.

That’s according to 247Sports, which bases the determination on a measurement tool it calls the “Blue-Chip Ratio.” The BCR, as defined by 247Sports, is a “recruiting metric that measures the overall talent of a team’s roster by determining the percentage of five- and four-star recruits signed over a four-year period compared to two- and three-star signees.”

Transfers are not factored into the Blue-Chip Ratio formula, only junior-college and high-school recruits are considered.
