Class of 2024 QB Brendan Zurbrugg (OH) Flipped to Oklahoma

[PhatOrange]

Has his rating gone up yet. Track it

I’m more surprised the offer was commitable than him flipping. OU must really be struggling with QB recruiting this cycle.

Would be shocked if Bass doesn’t pick cuse now with this choice

I’m sure God is a cool chick and all, but that’s some strange plan having him commit to three different schools before his senior year even starts.

Yes it wasn't until he visited. He's a pure depth play. There is already a 4 star QB committed for 2024.

Seems strange he’d commit there knowing that when he decommited here right after a 4 star QB committed. But I guess being depth at OU was more appealing to him.

Bass is being recruited as an Athlete for OU, not a QB. He will be a RB or slot receiver if he goes.

That's where he'll probably end up here, too.

Yeah who knows exactly how it played out here though on the surface it seems ironic.

Feels like we were used to leverage more offers. In the end I think he was always stargazing.

Zurburgg was rated 5.2 two star by rivals after he committed to Northwestern. 5.2 is a bad rating even for a MAC commit. He commits to OU and they immediately adjust him to a 5.5 3 star. The rating got modified because of who he flipped to. Has nothing to do with evaluations, skill sets or camp performances. If he had remained a Cuse or Northwestern commit his rating would have never changed. Another example of a flawed system.

Journeyman before he steps on a football field. More power to him but if your goal is to play football, a soon-to-be SEC Oklahoma is not the place I would suggest going for a fringe P5 talent.

2 to 3 stars are the most apt to be affected by this bias and it happens far too often.

They signed Jackson Arnold last cycle. Word is he is pushing Dillon Gabriel as the starter, so... Zurbergb ain't playing there unless there is injuries

Maybe he can parlay this into an Alabama or notre dame offer

Portal to Bama as a Soph, then grad transfer to ND. Could happen...

He sure is climbing the corporate ladder!

Nah -- none of his credits from Oklahoma or Alabama would transfer to Notre Dame.
