Oklahoma flips four-star WR Jayden Petit from Wisconsin

Naples (Fla.) St. John Neumann Rivals Industry four-star receiver Jayden Petit has flipped his commitment from Wisconsin to Oklahoma. He decommitted from the Badgers Wednesday night and announced for OU a little more than 12 hours later.

The 6-foot-4, 196-pound Petit becomes commit No. 23 for head coach Brent Venables and his staff in the 2026 class. He was a coveted target the entire cycle and one they stayed on even after his verbal to the Badgers in June.

Petit returned to Norman this fall for a game visit and Oklahoma checks a lot of boxes for the Sunshine State playmaker.

“The coaching staff and player development,” Petit said of what stands out about the Sooners. “The fanbase and the environment were also great!”

The Rivals Industry tabs Petit as the nation’s No. 26 receiver and No. 164 overall. He has had a dominant senior season turning 69 receptions into 1,544 yards and 23 touchdowns averaging over 22 yards per catch.

Oklahoma’s class ranked No. 17 nationally prior to Petit’s commitment.
