Oklahoma lands 5-star DE Kreul

Five-star edge rusher Jake Kreul announced his commitment to Oklahoma on Tuesday, according to Rivals' Hayes Fawcett.

Kreul ranks as the No. 4 defensive end and No. 22 overall recruit on the ESPN 300.

The Florida native picked Oklahoma over fellow finalists Texas and Ole Miss.

"What really excites me about my opportunity with Oklahoma is how they utilize their edge rushers," Kreul told Rivals' Steve Wiltfong. "In particular, (Sooners pass-rusher) R Mason Thomas, as we have very similar games."

Kreul is the third ESPN 300 prospect to join Oklahoma's 2026 class after four-star quarterback Bowe Bentley and wide receiver Daniel Odom.
