Oklahoma State Lands Commitment From 2024 Deer Park (TX) DE Luke Webb

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State just landed its 13th commitment in the 2024 class with Deer Park (TX) HS defensive end, Luke Webb.

Webb took to social media to make the announcement official.

Webb, who holds close to 20 offers, checks in at 6-3, 265 pounds and chose the Cowboys over Arizona, California, Houston, Indiana, Kansas, Oregon State, SMU, Tulane, UTSA and Washington State among others.

This past season as a junior, Webb was solid as he helped Deer Park to a 9-2 overall record and was the best defensive player in his district, 22-6A, as he was tabbed the Defensive Player of the Year. He led the district in both sacks and tackles for loss and he’s a two-time District 22-6A first team selection heading into his senior season.

Webb made his official visit to Stillwater back in mid-April and told Pokes Report that while he understands college football is a business, the Cowboys made it feel like a family. Certainly a sentiment shared by most recruits who come through the doors.

“The visit was wonderful,” Webb said of his official on April 14-16. “Everyone was great and made the program seem more like a family than a business. I know it’s a business, but there it did seem more like family.”

Pokes Report has been in contact with Webb, who has a family gathering Saturday afternoon, and will be the first call Webb makes for a reaction piece later today.

Webb marks the eighth defensive commitment in the class for the Pokes, as well as the 13th commitment, as mentioned above. He joins S Landyn Cleveland, CB Willie Nelson, LB Temerrick Johnson, DE Armstrong Nnodim, S David Kabongo, LB Jonathan Agumadu and LB Gunnar Wilson on the defensive side of the ball. The offensive commitments are WR Tre Griffiths, OL Caleb Hackleman, OL Chauncey Johnson, RB Rodney Fields and TE Josh Ford.

Looks like a list of mid-majors: Arizona, California, Houston, Indiana, Kansas, Oregon State, SMU, Tulane, UTSA and Washington State among others.

Probably be a nice, solid contributor.

That says it all, a high school kid who already knows that college football is now a business thanks to NIL.

Good player who could easily get to 300 pounds plus and move inside!!! His tape is good and he got positive comments from Greg Powers down at Texas Football!!!

Hopefully this turns out to be another 3 star kid that really is better than that and would have been classified as a 4 star if he committed to a "blue blood".

it always amazes me how the use of certain terms can lessen a persons value....

somehow many of these schools just went from Power5 teams to "mid-majors", when everybody on the planet knows the actual difference.


Welcome aboard Cowboy!

Depends on perspective. None of those schools would be considered top shelf football programs. He has no offers that are mentioned from blueblood or top 10-15 programs. If we continue to shop at Walmart, that's what we'll get.
I'm fully aware we recruit 4 star players. We just don't close on many. I'd like to take that next step so we can go toe to toe with the big boys week in and week out. We have to have quality depth from top to bottom to compete. The season is long, and it takes a toll on the players. Injuries really, really derailed us last year, and our OL the year before.
Depth is very important.

First the naysayers claim "but he (name recruit) didn't have any P5 offers", now when we land a kid that has P5 offers, then those offers suddenly just aren't good enough..... SMH

The kid has an .88 rating, the highest in our class so far. anything over .85 or higher is a highly rated kid. The difference between .88 and .9 (i.e., 4-star) is negligible. It's just a number - nothing more.

This kid should definitely be a celebration and not more woeful us by our supposed fans that frankly don't really have the experience to rate any of these kids.

Welcome aboard Cowboy
