On this explosive episode of Rise & Shine College Football, Jason Watkins unpacks a Thursday night shocker—Sooners 360's Chris Mason dropped a recruiting bombshell on the show with Horns Down Podcast's Kchris Griffin:
🔍 New Oklahoma GM Jim Nagy may be steering the Sooners toward a radical new approach—ignoring traditional recruiting rankings from On3, 247Sports, and Rivals altogether.
Jason dives into:
🚨 Why OU’s top RB targets Jonathan Hatton and Aydin Jones went elsewhere
⚙️ How Nagy’s NFL scouting model is reshaping OU’s recruiting board
📉 Will this approach tank OU’s class rankings?
📈 Or is this the forward-thinking move no one saw coming?
🌪️ What it means for the future of recruiting in Norman and beyond
This isn’t just about stars anymore. It’s about NFL measurables, traits, and system fit. The question is—can Sooner Nation handle it?
