Crystal Ball: Favoring Oklahoma for talented 2026 athlete

The month of June has been a busy one for Oklahoma as plenty of activity on the recruiting trail has been stirred up. The Sooners hope to take their momentum into July with some big decisions on the horizon.

This includes 2026 athlete Jacob Eberhart out of St. Louis (Missouri) Kirkwood. He'll make his decision on Saturday, July 12th at 6:00 p.m. ET. Eberhart will choose between Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, Illinois, and Alabama.

According to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Player Rankings, the world of recruiting combines to see Eberhart as the No. 330 overall recruit in the 2026 recruiting class. The four-star also rates as a top-20 athlete nationally and a top-four player in the state of Missouri.

As for the 247Sports Network's specific rankings, there Eberhart holds a strong three-star rating of an 87 player grade. He also checks in as the No. 69 athlete across the country and the No. 11 prospect inside the talented Show Me State.

All five finalists were able to host Eberhart during official visit season. But I'm favoring one entering commitment month.
