Oklahoma Sooners Predicted To Land Commitment From Prized Ole Miss Football Target

Mobile, Ala. – The race for Saraland three-star quarterback Jamison Roberts is tilting toward Norman. Rivals national analyst Chad Simmons logged an expert prediction Monday with Covered Wagons Recruiting that Brent Venables and the Oklahoma Sooners will secure the 6-foot-3, 190-pound signal-caller’s commitment over a final eight that still includes Pete Golding’s Ole Miss Rebels.

Roberts, rated the nation’s No. 21 quarterback in the 2027 class, trimmed his suitors to Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Auburn, Arkansas, Duke, Iowa, Northwestern and Kentucky after a junior season that saw him throw for nearly 3,400 yards and 37 touchdowns while rushing for more than 600 yards and 21 additional scores. The dual-threat standout guided Saraland to a 13-1 record and completed 72.6 percent of his passes in 16 varsity starts.

Scouting reports highlight his “dynamic” playmaking ability, noting unconventional but effective mechanics that generate easy torque and allow him to “rip tight spirals over the middle.” His acceleration in the option-read game and knack for escaping sacks have made him one of the most coveted quarterbacks in the Southeast this offseason.

While Ole Miss had hoped to build momentum after a historic portal haul, Simmons’ prediction gives Oklahoma the early edge as Roberts finalizes visit plans. The Sooners have extended a scholarship offer and are positioned to add another high-profile Alabama product to their 2027 haul.

Roberts’ commitment timeline remains fluid, but the expert pick signals Oklahoma has separated from the pack in a recruitment that once appeared wide open.
