As the Oklahoma Sooners gear up for their entry into the Southeastern Conference, they’re also gearing up to recruit more heavily in the southeastern region. This includes targeting prospects who are committed to future SEC opponents.
One such prospect is Malik Autry, currently committed to Auburn for the 2025 cycle. Autry’s recent surge in performance has attracted attention, leading to several new offers. Ranked as the 89th overall recruit in the Top247 player rankings, Autry has now garnered interest from the Sooners, adding another scholarship opportunity to his list.
Autry’s standout performance at the Under Armour Next Atlanta camp, where he was named the Alpha Dog, caught the eye of national scouting analysts. Described as dominant among both trench and skill position players, Autry impressed with his agility and technique. Analysts praised his size, now at 6-foot-5.5 and over 320 pounds, combined with exceptional athleticism, making him a rare find. Despite modest production in the past, expectations are high for Autry’s senior season, with Oklahoma now vying to sway him from his commitment to Auburn.
