This weekend's visitors include two players on the offensive side of the ball, as well as two defensive backs.

The following is an update on 14 recruiting targets that have been top Tulsa targets but are yet to officially announce their college decision. Expect several more commitments soon...

 
After racking up 10 scholarship offers, 6-foot-4 and 220-pound tight end Jackson Shockley ultimately decided that Tulsa was his best fit at the next level. The Denton (TX) Guyer product gave Hurricane coaches a verbal commitment on June 23 and announced his decision over the July 4 holiday.

 
At 6-foot-4 and 305-pounds, Javion Antai, is an imposing figure on the offensive line, but he’s also been a big name in recruiting circles, picking up scholarship offers from Oklahoma State, TCU, Kansas State, Cal, North Texas, UTEP and Tulsa.

In the end, the 3-star Jenks (OK) lineman chose the Golden Hurricane after his official visit on the weekend of June 21, marking another big get for TU -- both in size and impact.

With his senior season approaching, the 6-foot-3 and 230-pounder took official visits to Kent State on June 7 and Tulsa on June 21, ultimately deciding to become a Golden Hurricane.

 
Despite racking up 13 scholarship offers, The Woodlands (TX) wide receiver Shane Walker still seems like a hidden gem. He didn’t put up huge numbers as a junior due to playing with two broken fingers, but he’s an electric playmaker with big-play potential every time he touches the ball. It’s easy to see why he picked up offers from Tulsa, San Diego State, Texas State, North Texas, Louisiana Tech, Arkansas State and several others.

In the end, Walker committed to Tulsa after an official visit in late June.

The month of October was a busy one for Tulsa football coaches, as they extended several new scholarship offers in the 2025, 2026 and 2027 recruiting classes. The 2025 recruiting cycle has an important signing period that is fast approaching, as TU looks to fill out its recruiting class.

 
Jenks (OK) linebacker Sam Stone and former Jenks defensive end Hudson Ball both committed to Tulsa just before Thanksgiving. Despite TU firing head coach Kevin Wilson on Sunday, the pair of best friends still decided to pick the Golden Hurricane. Stone said the coaching change didn’t affect his choice.
