FaceProfileby:Thomas Goldkamp•01/06/24

Former USC and Florida offensive tackle Michael Tarquin has committed to Oklahoma out of the NCAA transfer portal, according to a report from Rivals.com.

Tarquin entered the portal after one season at USC, doing so as a graduate transfer.

He started eight games for USC this fall after starting 10 games at Florida and making 31 total appearances for the Gators.

So the Sooners will certainly be getting an experienced offensive lineman in the fold.

Michael Tarquin previously played at Citra High School in North Marion, Florida, where he was a four-star recruit, according to the On3 Industry Rankings. He was also rated the No. 323 overall player and No. 30 offensive tackle in his cycle.
