Oklahoma added a late commit to its 2023 recruiting class on Friday night.

The Sooners earned a commitment from 3-star linebacker Taylor Heim. He’s a Bethany, Oklahoma, native.

Here’s his announcement:

“I’m excited and ready to get to work so I can show what I can do at the next level,” Heim wrote in-part. “Thank you coach Venables and the entire OU staff for giving me this opportunity. With that being said, I am committing to the University of Oklahoma!”

Heim is one of the best in-state prospects in the class of 2023. He’s currently ranked as the No. 76 linebacker prospect in the country and the No. 11 player from the state of Oklahoma, per 247Sports. His other offers include Tulsa, Louisiana Tech and Air Force.

Oklahoma is now up to 26 commitments in the class of 2023. All of the Sooners’ previous commits have already signed with the program. Heim will be able to officially sign with OU on National Signing Day, which is Feb. 1. The group ranks No. 5 nationally, per 247Sports Composite rankings.

Here are highlights from Heim’s senior season at Bethany High School:
