Oklahoma Sooners are making waves with their impressive 2025 recruiting class under head coach Brent Venables. Venables is aiming for his fourth consecutive top-ten recruiting class since taking over as head coach of OU. One insider believes that Venables, along with Miguel Chavis, could be on the verge of securing a key defensive player for the class.
Kade Pietrzak, a highly touted defensive lineman from North Dakota, has been predicted to commit to Oklahoma by Nebraska insider Bryan Munson, who made the prediction for On3 Sports. This wouldn’t be the first time that Oklahoma has been favored to land the 4-star recruit. Pietrzak, standing at 6 feet 5 inches and weighing 240 pounds, is considered a top-200 player nationally by On3 and the top player in his state. He has experience playing both defensive end and defensive tackle for Sheyenne High School.
Despite needing to bulk up a bit to be effective in the SEC, Pietrzak already possesses good size for the edge position. He received an offer from Venables and Chavis in January and earned a Rivals FutureCast from Oklahoma insider Parker Thune in May. In addition to Oklahoma, Pietrzak has offers from schools such as Nebraska, Kansas State, and Wisconsin.
