Here's the latest from Rivals' Oklahoma recruiting gurus:
"All right, folks... let's start with the not-so-fortunate news. I like to think I'm a pretty straight shooter when it comes to wavering pledges; I told y'all last year that Cortez Mills and Kevin Sperry were goners and that Courtland Guillory would stick despite his visit to Texas.
So in all candor, I will tell you that I don't feel great about the Sooners' chances to hold on to Daniel Odom. The blue-chip wideout from Cali is in the process of scheduling several visits, including OV's, to several schools other than Oklahoma. The Sooners will still get him in town for a ChampU BBQ official, but it may be too little and too late by that time.
You will ask if this has anything to do with Jaden O'Neal, and I will tell you that I don't favor OU's chances to keep Odom in the fold regardless of the outcome with O'Neal. Odom's commitment was out of left field in the first place, which is always cause for skepticism as to whether it'll hold.
I'm not saying the kid is two feet out the door just yet, but you'd be well advised to adjust expectations accordingly.
