Big 12 Football: Highest rated signees in the conference from the 2021 class
There are several talented newcomers joining the Big 12 this offseason.
Some have already enrolled early on campus with their respective programs and competed in spring ball, while a few others won’t arrive until the summer.
Oklahoma sat atop the Big 12 rankings for the top class in the conference for the 2021 cycle, therefore it’s not surprising that the highest rated signees on this particular list is flooded with future Sooners.
Surprisingly, Texas only had one player mentioned in five-star athlete Ja’Tavion Sanders. West Virginia and Oklahoma State each had their highest rated signee mentioned as well.
Four-star wide receiver Xavier Worthy, who originally signed with Michigan and is expected to join Texas’ program this offseason, would have made this list as the No. 61 player in the nation for the 2021 cycle. However, he hasn’t officially signed with the Longhorns yet so we chose to leave him off of the rankings for the time being.
