**Breaking News: Five-Star Guard Shocks Texas Longhorns with Decommit, Flips Commitment to Oklahoma Sooners Over Razorbacks and Red Raiders**
In a stunning turn of events on the college basketball recruiting trail, five-star guard Jayden “J-Roc” Thompson has officially decommitted from the Texas Longhorns and announced his new commitment to the Oklahoma Sooners. The explosive 6’4” combo guard from Dallas, Texas had been verbally committed to Texas for nearly six months, making this sudden flip all the more shocking to Longhorns fans and college hoops insiders.
Thompson, widely considered one of the top five guards in the 2025 class, made his announcement via a live social media stream on Friday afternoon, donning a crimson Sooners cap as he made his new commitment official. “I’ve prayed on it, talked with my family, and ultimately felt that Oklahoma was where my heart was,” Thompson said. “Coach Moser and the staff have shown real love from day one, and I believe in the vision they have for me.”
The decision comes as a major blow to Texas, who had pegged Thompson as the centerpiece of their 2025 recruiting class. Arkansas and Texas Tech were also in the mix late, but it was Oklahoma’s consistent recruiting efforts and the promise of immediate playing time that sealed the deal.
This marks a huge recruiting win for the Sooners, who continue to make noise on the national stage. With Thompson now in the fold, Oklahoma’s backcourt for the future looks dangerous and dynamic.
As for Texas, they’ll now have to regroup and shift their focus to other top guard prospects in the class. Meanwhile, Sooners fans are celebrating what could be a program-defining commitment.
