QB John Mateer commits to Oklahoma after Washington St. transfer
Washington State transfer quarterback John Mateer has committed to Oklahoma, he announced on social media Wednesday.
Mateer is the No. 1 overall player in ESPN's transfer rankings and joins the Sooners after a breakthrough season as the Cougars' starter in 2024. He'll have two more seasons of eligibility.
Oklahoma hired Washington State offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle and quarterbacks coach John Kuceyeski earlier this month and was long considered the favorite to land Mateer if he transferred. Oklahoma held off a strong push from Miami to secure his pledge, sources told ESPN.
