EDMOND, Okla. – The Santa Fe team camp was expected to be among the most loaded in the state over the last few weeks of spring practice. And it did not disappoint with a dozen high-end prospects – most of whom already hold power four offers. The Sooners have several offers that were on display but several more who could join those ranks. SoonerScoop.com was on hand for all of it and offers some thoughts on some of the biggest stars.

Grady Adamson – 2025 – QB – Deer Creek – GT Commit

What We Saw: Without question the best quarterback on hand was Adamson. He makes some throws that definitely wow you. But Adamson also had a few that were near misses. As he gets more and more consistent he’ll definitely show why Georgia Tech is getting one of the steals in Oklahoma.

Adam Auston – 2026 – S – Lawton MacArthur

What We Saw: Auston is one of three Lawton Mac defenders to make this list and he showed off why Missouri offered him on Tuesday. The big man has a lot of ability and while the early buzz has been at safety, with his frame he brings the ability to perhaps spin down as an off-ball linebacker. Could he perhaps play a role similar to the Sooners cheetah position? It seems possible.

Kayleb Barnett – 2025 – WR – Jenks

What We Saw: Speed. So much speed for Barnett who is fresh off winning a state title in the 100-meter dash with a 10.52-second time. He’s also got plenty of open field ability so he’s not just a straight line runner. He has just made the move from Broken Arrow to the Trojans and looked right at home with several scores for Jenks.

Kailib Dillard – 2027 – S – Jenks

What We Saw: Another new move-in for the Trojans is the younger of a pair of brothers coming over from 3A Oklahoma state champion Lincoln Christian. Dillard put on a show during the state title game and he kept that up with his work on Wednesday. He was very strong on the day and the Jenks staff has been impressed with his toughness and sees him as a potential standout at safety in the very near future.

Malakai Dillard – 2026 – WR – Jenks

What We Saw: The older Dillard brother seems more destined to be a receiver for the Trojans. That said, he showed some ability on the defensive side of the ball as well. The recent North Texas offer should be making the rounds this summer at some camps and could see his reputation grow.

Mason James – 2027 – WR – Norman North – OU OFFER

What We Saw: I’ve talked about this already on both the Unofficial 40 as well as yesterday’s recruiting report but I thought James was the player of the day. He showed an ability to make plays at all levels and had maybe the play of the day on a jet sweep that saw him not only show off speed but easy change of direction and the ability to set up some blocks. The Sooners offer will be busy this summer and his offer list figures to keep growing.

Deakon Jones – 2027 – WR – Stillwater

What We Saw: Jones was a standout as a freshman for the Pioneers and he showed why on Wednesday. Jones has a solid frame for such a young player at about 6-foot and 170-pounds but more than anything he’s a playmaker. Be it at receiver or defensive back Jones was making tough catches and interceptions. His hands may be his hallmark but we’re looking forward to seeing more.

Kaydin Jones – 2026 – RB – Jenks – OU OFFER

What We Saw: The early favorite as Oklahoma’s No. 1 prospect in 2026 did nothing to hurt his reputation. Jones shined at both safety and running back for the Trojans but you could tell the Trojans were letting some less-experienced players some reps at various points. Jones’s frame continues to fill out and he looks every bit the star most feel he’ll become in 2024.

Nehemiah Kolone – 2026 – DL – Stillwater

2026 OK EDGE Nehemiah Kolone

What We Saw: It was our first look at Kolone and he definitely impressed. He’s a player that the defending 6A-II finalists move around a lot. He’ll play some EDGE, some defensive line, and in Stillwater’s unique scheme he’ll stand up in their ‘no down’ front. He’s a good athlete who has some natural pass rushing ability. He could really take off this fall.

Demarius Robinson – 2025 – RB – Edmond Santa Fe

What We Saw: A dude just being a dude. Robinson was, as ever, a dominant force that was mixing it up and letting everyone know he was there. He’s a back who really does a bit of everything for the Wolves but surprises most everyone with his physicality. But there just isn’t likely to be a more productive back in the state.

Joshua Rushing – 2026 – WR – Lawton MacArthur

What We Saw: It was our first look at Rushing and he’s definitely got the size and ability to be worthy of the early attention. What could be interesting is that while many are talking about wide receiver, could he be a guy that gets some attention as a safety? His range and length could be interesting to see in that role.

Semaj Stanford – 2027 – S – Jenks

What We Saw: From early on Stanford had impressive hype but he’s shown himself to be more than just buzz. He’s got a chance to be one of the premier safeties to come out of the state in recent years. To go along with guys like Josh Proctor, Dax Hill, and Steven Parker among many others. Stanford is young but is already emerging as a leader for the Trojans secondary. He’s also a guy who looks at home in both pass coverage and run defense.

AJ Vaughn – 2025 – CB – Lawton MacArthur

What We Saw: They are still waiting for Vaughn to be beaten on a deep ball. That’s right, the talented corner has yet to be beaten on a deep ball during his two years as a starter for the Highlanders. That didn’t change on Wednesday though there were a few close calls. Vaughn has nice size and moves well, it’s no shock that Iowa State has identified him as an offer already.
