One of the state's most coveted receivers Arjei Henderson of FB Travis HS released a video on Twitter, announcing his commitment to the University of Oklahoma.
He will join another Houston-area product CeeDee Lamb of Foster next year in the Sooners' receiving corps. Henderson is a volume ball-catcher in the slot and is great in space.
Henderson has caught for over 2,500 yards and 30 touchdowns for the Tigers.
He originally committed to Oregon less than a year ago, but it seems that Norman, Oklahoma will be his school of choice.
Henderson wasn't the only haul for the Sooners.
FB Bush DB Jamal Morris also announced his commitment to Oklahoma through Twitter on Friday.
Morris is another 4-star prospect who, alongside teammate Erick Young, made up one of the best defensive backfields in Houston.

The rookie's second hit of the game came off Orion Kerkering (5-3) and gave the Astros their fourth straight win.
Brandon Marsh tied the game on a sacrifice fly in the top of the inning to end the Phillies' 26-inning scoreless streak.
The Astros took a 1-0 lead on Yainer Diaz’s RBI single in the second inning. They only managed three more hits off Phillies starter Christopher Sanchez, who struck out 11 with zero walks over six innings. Sanchez has not issued a walk in three straight starts.
Hunter Brown lowered his league best ERA to 1.74 by scattering three singles over seven shutout innings, with nine strikeouts. He did not allow a runner to reach second base.
FULL THROTTLE.
