Shockwaves in Recruiting: Why Oklahoma Just Lost the Nation’s No. 2 RB Commitment for 2028
College football recruiting is based on so many factors, but one of the major ones is relationships. Position coaches recruit players, and relationships are made. When coaches move on, players reconsider their commitments. Oklahoma running back coach DeMarco Murray left for the Kansas City Chiefs, leaving a void.
Now, Murray’s departure may have impacted the 2028 class, as a running back from the class has decommitted, according to Hayes Fawcett of On3.
Micah Rhodes, the number two-ranked running back in the class of 2028, has decommitted from the Sooners after committing to them in January. He initially chose Oklahoma over multiple top-end programs going after him. After Murray left Oklahoma, Rhodes spoke to OU Insider Parker Thune.
