I saw Jaden Nickens put us in the top 5. Is that looking less likely?

Per 247 predictions he looks headed to KU.

Thanks RA - I posted this on another story but will here too. What's your gut - will Ollie go portal or NFL next year? I hope NFL so that he's a Cowboy forever.

Yea. He wants to play basketball and football. They are better at both currently.

Not RA, but I can't see him going into the portal. I think he would've after last year if he was going to. Plus, running backs have such a short shelf life that I think he'll want to make his way to the NFL to try and get as many years as a he can.

Yeah I would imagine OSU has moved on from Nickens once he committed to Oklahoma last year, even after he decommitted back in March. With the shift of recruiting moving mainly to the transfer portal, I don't think OSU signs too many players more than what they have in the class right now, and I could honestly see it being a few less.

I also think Nickens wants to try and be a two-sport athlete at the next level and I'm not sure how much Lutz is recruiting him.

Thanks Zach. Appreciate the reply. That would be good - a Cowboy forever.

What about Kyle Keya? Is he still committed?

That's something we'll dig into. I just checked his Twitter account and it doesn't show anything about his commitment, but there was nothing official publicly. So, I'm leaning towards not committed at this point.

Shows you what I think about us! He would have a much better shot at playing both sports here though.
