Oklahoma Sooners 5-star defensive end target sets commitment date
The Oklahoma Sooners are in the running for one of the top edge rushers in the nation in ESPN five-star prospect Jake Kreul. Oklahoma, along with Texas and Ole Miss, is in the running for the elite pass rushers' services, and Kreul has set a decision date ahead of his senior season. Kreul told ESPN's Eli Lederman that he plans to commit on August 12. Kreul is the No. 22 player in the class according to ESPN and No. 61 according to 247Sports. He's one of the most polished pass rushers in the class, and with his size and strength, would have an opportunity to play early in his career. Oklahoma has made a strong play for Kreul. Defensive ends coach Miguel Chavis has built a strong relationship with the IMG Academy product, and Kreul is a former teammate of Sooners defensive linemen David Stone and Jayden Jackson. While predictions have favored the Sooners in this recruitment, it's one of those national recruiting battles that could go in any direction. Texas is a major player, and Ole Miss shouldn't be counted out due to their recent success developing defensive end prospects. He's an elite player with the ability to be a difference maker against the run and as a pass rusher. He has 36 Power Four offers. Any team would be thrilled to land a player with his skill set. Can the Oklahoma Sooners hold off the Longhorns and Rebels to land the elite prospect? We'll find out on August 12. Jake Kreul Recruiting Profile Watch Jake Kreul highlights on Hudl Kreul is one of the elite prospects in the 2026 cycle, demonstrating technical refinement in his game.

Wayne Matthews III says MSU is 'stacked' at LB, gives freshman LB a shout out
A freshman Spartans linebacker is turning heads in what is considered a "stacked" position group A freshman linebacker has gained the respect and grabbed the attention of a veteran within that position room. Veteran linebacker Wayne Matthews spoke with the media on Tuesday, fielding a number of questions about the Spartans as they prepare for the 2025 season. Matthews was quoted staying the Spartans are "stacked" at linebacker this year, with one particular young player getting a personal shout out as well: Brady Pretzlaff. Per a post on social media from Emmett Matasovsky of Spartan Shadows, Matthews said Pretzlaff is "going to be a guy" for the Spartans. Whether or not that is this year or down the road is not clear, but certainly still some high praise from Matthews for the young redshirt freshman linebacker. Here's the full post from Matasovsky with the quote from Matthews: Pretzlaff played in four games last year but was able to preserve his redshirt status. He tallied a seven total tackles, with one of which being for a loss. He was a four-star prospect in On3's ratings for the 2024 class, and a nice recruiting win for Jonathan Smith's staff in his first recruiting cycle. Pretzlaff came to Michigan State with expectations of seeing solid playing time early in his career and it sounds like that is going to happen. Having another young solid linebacker in an already talented -- "stacked" as Matthews said -- room is great news for the Spartans.
