Collin Oliver is one of the highest-ranked Oklahoma State linebackers to pledge to the program. Ever. Period.
He also ranks quite high on the list of all-time recruits in the entire category of defensive players.
I culled the list of all-time signees to join the Cowboys program since recruiting rankings were indexed in the early 2000s, and Oliver’s inclusion on the shortlist, via the 247Sports database, is notable. Among all of them on the defensive side of the ball, he ranks 22nd — and notably just behind the likes of Justin Gilbert, Markelle Martin, Ugo Chinasa and others.
