Oklahoma’s two highest-rated commitments for the 2016 class, which is the highest-rated under Lon Kruger, met for the first time this weekend, and it couldn’t have gone much better (Kameron McGusty and Matt Freeman).
“We’ll be texting each other until we get to Oklahoma,” Freeman said. “That’ll be good because we’ve got contact now, and it’ll be good to just build that relationship before we even get to campus.”
McGusty is planning a trip back to Oklahoma on Oct. 23, but Freeman said he won’t be coming back until January, when he comes over for good. Freeman all but guaranteed that he’d enroll at Oklahoma in January, practice with the team and sit on the bench to take in everything he can from the Sooner’s senior veterans.
This past weekend’s trip – the first for both since their commitment – had a different feel aside from visiting campus with another highly rated future teammate.
“It felt really different,” said McGusty, a four-star wing. “When I got there, I felt like this is where I belong. This was my home. It was just a different mindset you have going in. . . . I was very relaxed. I just felt like it was home. They say the third time is the charm, but shoot, this was my fourth time, and I’m planning on going up there again.”
