Sooners favored to land 2026 wide receiver Aljour Miles, Jr.
The Oklahoma Sooners have earned significant commitments to kick off the 2026 recruiting class. Four-star prospects Jaden O'Neal, Jonathan Hatton and Ryder Mix have gotten the ball rolling for the Sooners for next year’s recruiting class. As it looks to build upon it, OU appears to have some momentum in the recruitment of Kaufman athlete Aljour Miles. Parker Thune and Brandon Drumm of OUInsider, along with Marshall Levenson, issued Rivals futurecasts favoring the Sooners in the recruitment for Miles. According to Thune, the Sooners see him as a wide receiver at the collegiate level. Though he hasn’t been rated by any of the primary recruiting sites at this point, Miles has the athleticism to be a difference-maker out wide. He shows off good route-running ability and reads the ball well in the air. Miles has the ability to win deep and shows off good hands. It’s likely he ends the 2026 recruiting cycle as a four-star prospect by signing day. Miles holds offers from Oklahoma, Colorado State, SMU, Pitt, Tulsa, North Texas, UTEP, UTSA and Boston College.
