Oklahoma State Makes Top 8 for 2023 Four-Star Athlete

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State has made the cut for one of the top prospects in the 2023 class.

Rodney Gallagher is a four-star athlete out of Laurel Highlands in Uniontown, PA. The Cowboys’ recruiting process of Gallagher has moved rather quickly throughout the month of April. Mike Gundy and Co. offered him on April 12, he then announced an official visit for June 15-17 less than 24 hours after receiving his offer. Less than two weeks later, the Pokes made his top 8 schools.

Gallagher, who’s listed at 6-0, 160-pounds, is a dual-threat quarterback in the 2023 class. This past season as a junior, he went 104-of-179 for 1,365 yards and 12 touchdowns through the air, while carrying the ball 169 times for 1,130 yards and 21 touchdowns.

This came after playing wide receiver during his first two years in high school.

As I wrote in the article following his offer and official visit announcement, Gallagher will need to bulk up in size at whichever school he lands at, but his speed, athleticism and frame makes him an ideal slot receiver or receiver out of the backfield. Has very good downfield vision and breakaway speed and isn’t afraid of contact in the middle of the field.

Gallagher is currently listed as the No. 97 overall prospect in the 2023 class according to 247Sports, as well as the No. 2 prospect out of Pennsylvania.
