Sooners Add Late 2015 Commitment in JUCO DE Austin Roberts

Things never really end with recruiting and we have evidence of that tonight as the Sooners picked up a big (literally) addition to the class of 2015 in defensive end Austin Roberts 6-6/265. We've now been able to confirm the initial report of Roberts commitment through Eric Bailey of the Tulsa World.

Roberts chose the Sooners over Nebraska. He is an interesting recruit in that he has committed late and will join the Sooners for the class of 2015. According to Roberts on twitter he will arrive at OU in July, provided that he takes care of the last few classes he has at NEO.

@dmillertimee end of July
