The recruitment of Jaquaize Pettaway was always in good hands with Cale Gundy leading the charge. However, the stakes on Pettaway’s commitment became higher once it was clear this was going to be a RRR battle between the Oklahoma Sooners and the Texas Longhorns:
Jaquaize made his visit to Norman in early June with several other high-profile athletes before visiting Ole Miss and Texas in subsequent weeks. In the end, it was family, vision, and what the Sooners had to offer on the field, not just off-the-field incentives like other programs brought to the table in his recruitment.
