Oklahoma State has Multiple Coaches All-State Players
STILLWATER – The Oklahoma Coaches Association has selected their All-State football for the performances in the 2022 season and to play in the 2023 Coaches All-State Game. There are seven players with Oklahoma State connections that were chosen to be honored.
Already on campus is Stillwater center Jakobe Sanders and the 6-2, 325-pound Sanders was selected to play in the 2023 All-State Game. In our opinion, this is the highest honor an Oklahoma high school football player can receive. These teams are chosen by the coaches and when you are selected to play in the game over being All-State by class that is the best of the best. Joining Sanders on the East All-State team for the game is Pioneers quarterback Gage Gundy. The 6-4, 215-pound Gundy is the son of Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy. Gundy follows his dad, brother (Cowboy quarterback Gunnar), his grandfather (Ray), and uncle (Cale) as an All-State selection.
Gundy and Sanders teamed up to help Stillwater win the Class 6A-II State Championship over Choctaw back in December. While Sanders is already enrolled and with Oklahoma State, Gundy is playing baseball for Stillwater and is a prospect for the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft in July.
Also, making the All-State Game is Broken Arrow offensive lineman Jamison Mejia. The 6-5, 280-pound Mejia took an official visit to Virginia last weekend and will start an official visit to Oklahoma State on Thursday, Jan. 26. Mejia is a likely offensive tackle in college.
Joining Sanders and Mejia on the OCA All-State team from the East is C.J. Compton from Bethel. Compton is a preferred walk-on for the Cowboys and will attend the walk-on day for Oklahoma State football this weekend. He is a 6-5, 295-pound lineman that has excellent opportunity to work toward a scholarship.
Earning All-State by class honors from the OCA are Del City defensive end Jaedon Foreman (6-4, 260). Foreman signed with Oklahoma State and will report this summer. Recently pledging as a preferred walk-on is Norman North wide receiver Cason Cabbiness (6-2, 175). He will join his older brother Cale Cabbiness on the Cowboys team. Garrett Keith (6-4, 285) is another offensive line preferred walk-on that Oklahoma State feels is a strong prospect. Keith earned his All-State honor playing at Ardmore Plainview.
