Four-Star Recruit Roger Rosengarten Shocks Washington Huskies, Chooses Oklahoma Sooners
In a stunning turn of events, four-star offensive lineman Roger Rosengarten announced his decision to decommit from the Washington Huskies and pledge his future to the Oklahoma Sooners. The news came as a significant blow to Washington, which had been heavily invested in Rosengarten, who is ranked among the top offensive tackle prospects in the 2024 class.
Rosengarten’s flip to Oklahoma highlights the Sooners’ aggressive push in recruiting elite talent under head coach Brent Venables. The Sooners have prioritized bolstering their offensive line, a move critical for competing in the demanding SEC, which they join in 2024.
For Washington, the loss of Rosengarten represents a setback in maintaining a dominant recruiting pipeline under Kalen DeBoer. This decommitment underscores the challenges of retaining top talent amidst fierce competition in college football recruiting.
The details behind Rosengarten’s decision remain under wraps, but sources suggest Oklahoma’s facilities, coaching staff, and move to the SEC played a pivotal role in swaying the recruit. The Huskies will now need to recalibrate their strategy to fill the gap left by the 6’7″, 290-pound lineman.
This development reshapes the recruiting landscape for both programs as the early signing period approaches.
