- Courtland Guillory Announces Commitment to Oklahoma Sooners
In a highly anticipated move, top recruit Courtland Guillory has officially committed to play for the Oklahoma Sooners. The 6’4” defensive back from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, made the announcement on his social media platforms, sending shockwaves through college football recruiting circles.
Guillory, a standout at Woodlawn High School, is widely regarded as one of the top defensive prospects in the 2025 class. Known for his impressive speed, physicality, and football IQ, he has drawn attention from numerous powerhouse programs across the country. However, after months of speculation, Guillory revealed that he would be heading to Norman, Oklahoma, to continue his athletic and academic career with the Sooners.
“After much thought and consideration, I’m excited to announce that I am committing to the University of Oklahoma,” Guillory wrote in his post. “I want to thank my family, my coaches, and all the people who have supported me on this journey. This is just the beginning, and I’m ready to work and make an impact for the Sooners.”
Oklahoma head coach Brent Venables and his staff have been heavily involved in recruiting Guillory, seeing him as a key piece of their future defensive unit. Venables, known for his success with elite defenses at Clemson, has made securing top-tier defensive talent a priority since taking over the Sooners’ program. Guillory’s versatility as a cornerback with the ability to also play safety makes him a dynamic asset to Oklahoma’s defense.
The commitment of Guillory adds another layer of excitement to an already strong recruiting class for Oklahoma. As a key part of their defensive rebuild, he is expected to bring an immediate presence to the Sooners’ secondary. Fans in Norman are eagerly anticipating his arrival in the fall of 2025.
For Guillory, the road to becoming a Sooner has been paved with hard work and determination. As one of the most sought-after recruits in the nation, his commitment solidifies Oklahoma’s status as a rising power in college football. The future looks bright for both Guillory and the Sooners.
