OU football jumps to No. 15 in 2021 team recruiting rankings

Oklahoma is making a push for the top Big 12 class in the 2021 Rivals team rankings.

With the commitment of four-star DT Kelvin Gilliam on Sunday, the Sooners are now just one spot away from Texas at No. 15.

Gilliam, a major Oklahoma target, marks the 14th commitment for coach Lincoln Riley. The 6-foot-4, 260-pound product out of Highland Springs, VA chose OU over Penn State and South Carolina.

Last year, the Sooners' class ended up around the No. 15 mark, but with a few more commitments this year, they could cement a top ten class for 2021.
