Spring football is about to begin in Oklahoma and that means it’s a wrap for the 7v7 travel circuit. We went to tournaments throughout the spring and saw some fantastic talent from Oklahoma nearly every single weekend. Over the next few days, we’re taking a look back at the best prospects that we had a chance to see in person. And here’s a disclaimer before we begin, a lot of these prospects played for Sooner 7 because we saw plenty of Sooner 7 throughout the 7v7 circuit. But we do have a few other prospects from other travel programs. In this post, it’s part one of two, looking at some of the best playmakers on offense that we saw throughout the 7v7 season. Some of these guys play defense as well but they were at their best on offense.
ICYMI:
Dalton Person Dalton Person 5'10" | 150 lbs | WR Verdigris | 2023 State OK – 2023 WR – Verdigris (Sooner 7)
The other four prospects we break down on this list have gotten D1 interest/offers and a few are top five prospects in their respective classes. Verdigris 2023 wide receiver Dalton Person Dalton Person 5'10" | 150 lbs | WR Verdigris | 2023 State OK is still waiting on his opportunity. And we’ve written about Pearson quite a bit over the last 18 months and it always boils down to the same thing. Person is an undersized wide receiver and we don’t care because he catches everything thrown his way. Person was arguably the most reliable wide receiver throughout the Sooner 7 program and once again showed that size really doesn’t matter. While the pads weren’t on, defenders still got physical with Person and it didn’t matter. The Verdigris standout has some of the best hands in the state and if the ball touches him, he’s bringing it down for a catch. Buy. Stock. Now.
Jino Boyd Jino Boyd 6'0" | WR Union | 2024 State OK – 2024 WR – Union (918 Elite)
It was during last year’s 7v7 season that we first saw Union 2024 wide receiver Jino Boyd Jino Boyd 6'0" | WR Union | 2024 State OK and started buying stock. He would go on to lead Union in receiving as a sophomore and he’s established himself as one of the top playmakers within the state’s 2024 class. This spring, playing with 918 Elite and primarily his Union teammates, Boyd was once again one of the top playmakers that we saw during the 7v7 season. It didn’t matter how opponents would cover Boyd, he would find a way to get open or he would just make spectacular catch after spectacular catch against his man. We’re expecting Boyd to have an outstanding 2022 season for Union and take his game to the next level this fall. He got off to a great start during the 7v7 season and was one of the top receivers we saw.
Micah Tease Micah Tease 6'1" | WR Booker T Washington | 2023 State OK – 2023 WR – Booker T Washington
Booker T Washington 2023 standout Micah Tease Micah Tease 6'1" | WR Booker T Washington | 2023 State OK has been with Sooner 7 for the last several years but he’s been much busier this offseason as a top five prospect in the state’s 2023 class. He only played in a few tournaments but each time he came out, he showed why he’s been that guy at the wide receiver position for over a year now. While he’s being recruited by some of the top programs in the country and the option of playing defensive back is on the table, we still like what Tease is able to do as a playmaking wide receiver. During the tournament in Tulsa specifically, Tease made some of the best catches in 1 on 1 coverage that we saw all offseason. Whether the ball was underthrown or he had to simply beat his man in a jump ball situation, more times than not, Tease came down with the rock.
Morgan Pearson Morgan Pearson 6'2" | 220 lbs | ATH Plainview | 2023 State OK – 2023 WR – Plainview (C4)
Another 2023 wide receiver prospect that is starting to look like an overall athlete is Plainview standout Morgan Pearson Morgan Pearson 6'2" | 220 lbs | ATH Plainview | 2023 State OK . When we got the brief chance to see Pearson this offseason with C4, we were blown away at his growth physically. He is absolutely built and we’re starting to buy into the fact that he could play another position at the next level other than wide receiver. Pearson is also getting the attention of colleges as a potential linebacker prospect and that’s scary to think about considering his size, speed and strength. But as a wide receiver playing 7v7, Pearson was once again one of the top playmakers in the state. He showed why we’ve had him as a top five receiver prospect in the 2023 class for over a year now with his ability to make some of the best catches you’ll see in a 7v7 setting.
Sedrick Frazier Sedrick Frazier 5'10" | 155 lbs | ATH Edmond North | 2023 State OK – 2023 WR – Edmond North (Sooner 7)
Edmond North 2023 wide receiver Sedrick Frazier Sedrick Frazier 5'10" | 155 lbs | ATH Edmond North | 2023 State OK is another in-state prospect that got onto our radar by playing with Sooner 7 over the last few years. Frazier was once again showcasing his speed and playmaking abilities throughout the offseason. One thing that always impresses me about Frazier is the confidence that he plays with each and every time out. Frazier is another prospect that can also go out and play defense but like the others on this breakdown, we like him on the offensive side of the ball. He knows how to get open and his speed is outstanding in the open field. Frazier’s stock has gone way up over the last 12 months and it should continue this summer, extending into his senior season. Frazier has been a fun prospect to watch grow over the last few years and he’s primed for a big senior season.
