Former Stanford Cardinal offensive lineman Luke Baklenko is taking his talents to Norman, committing to join the Oklahoma Sooners via the NCAA Transfer Portal, he announced on Monday.

Baklenko played the past two seasons with Stanford, but he was looking to move on and battle elsewhere. He appeared in five games as a true freshman for the Cardinal, before playing 11 games this season as a sophomore and becoming a coveted lineman in the portal.

As a member of the Class of 2023, Baklenko was a three-star recruit out of Westlake Village (Calif.) Oaks Christian, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was the No. 60 overall prospect in the state, the No. 43 offensive tackle in the class and the No. 710 overall prospect in the class.

While this past season was slightly disappointing for Oklahoma, the Sooners seemed primed to make some noise in 2025, which will mark their second season in the SEC. Luke Baklenko is joining Brent Venables’ team for the ride, and hoping they surprise some pundits with their play next season.
