New Oklahoma football coach Brent Venables lands first commitment: ESPN 300 QB Nick Evers

Brent Venables got his first commitment as the new Oklahoma football coach on Monday when ESPN 300 quarterback Nick Evers committed to the Sooners.

Evers is ranked No. 134 overall and is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound prospect from Flower Mound, Texas. He's the No. 8 pocket passer in the class and had been committed to Florida until he decommitted from the Gators six days ago.

Evers is an important commitment for Venables and his staff as quarterback Spencer Rattler entered the transfer portal on Nov. 29 and ESPN Junior 300 quarterback Malachi Nelson decommitted from Oklahoma in the 2023 class when Lincoln Riley left for USC.
