The 2014 recruiting class for Oklahoma exhibited a mix of outcomes that reflect a notable range of performance levels. With a total of 28 recruits, the class included a 39% blue chip percentage, which generally signals a strong potential for future success. However, the class's S2S rerank dropped from 15 to 21, indicating that the overall performance did not meet the initial expectations set by the original rankings.
Several players from this class achieved high outcomes, notably four players who reached the NFL Pro Bowl level. This success showcases the program's ability to develop talent beyond initial recruiting projections. Conversely, the presence of a few misses highlights that even higher-ranked recruits can sometimes underperform, leading to a mixed overall evaluation of the class's effectiveness.
Overall, the Oklahoma 2014 recruiting class met expectations to a degree but showcased a wide variance in individual outcomes. The S2S rerank's decline suggests that while there were standout performers, the collective results did not fully align with the initial hopes for the class. The class featured several notable hits, particularly among lower-ranked players who exceeded their recruiting profiles. Conversely, some higher-ranked recruits failed to deliver on the anticipated impact. The takeaway is that while the class had significant successes, the inconsistency among the higher-ranked recruits contributed to a less favorable overall assessment.
