Oklahoma Football Hires Kale Pearson as Director of High School Recruiting

Oklahoma football has hired Kale Pearson as the team's new director of high school recruiting, joining general manager Jim Nagy's expanding front office staff. Pearson, a Tulsa native and former Air Force Academy quarterback, brings extensive experience as Air Force's general manager, director of recruiting, and NFL liaison since 2022. His career includes leading Union High School to three state championships, serving as a graduate assistant at Air Force, and holding leadership roles in the Air Force and private sector. Pearson's strong ties to Oklahoma high school football and diverse professional background are expected to be valuable assets for the Sooners' recruiting strategy. His hiring follows recent additions to Oklahoma’s front office under Nagy, reflecting a broader effort to strengthen the program's personnel and recruiting operations. Pearson has already begun engaging with the program, welcoming new transfer additions via social media.
