Sooners receive commitment from linebacker

Oklahoma has reportedly received a verbal commitment from Rashod Favors, a 6-foot-1, 225-pound linebacker from Dunbar High School in Texas.

According to Scout.com network Web site SoonersIllustrated.com, Favors said OU defensive coordinator Brent Venables is "looking at me as a hybrid safety. ... As a rover and maybe a linebacker, too."

Favors, OU's 23rd commitment, is a Scout.com Top 300 national prospect and a Rivals.com Texas Top 100 prospect. He reportedly also received offers from most Big 12 Conference schools, including Oklahoma State, as well as Vanderbilt, Purdue and Stanford.

Verbal commitments are nonbinding. Prospects can sign letters of intent on Feb. 3, 2010.
