Peyton Bowen has signed his national letter of intent.
Bowen said that after announcing Oregon as his choice, he quickly “came to the realization that the decision was not the best path for me.” And with regards to Notre Dame, Bowen said he realized that his “heart was somewhere else,” and not in South Bend.
Despite the verbal commitment to Notre Dame, which dated back to January, Bowen took multiple visits to other schools throughout the year — particularly Oklahoma and Texas A&M. In fact, many thought if Bowen flipped his commitment it would be to Oklahoma.“Oklahoma has always felt like home to me. Reflecting, it seems as if I was looking for a reason to branch out and break away from home.
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Bowen is ranked No. 10 overall in the class of 2023 by Rivals. He is considered the second-best player in the state of Texas and the second-best safety in his class. Bowen is the highest-rated player in Oklahoma’s 2023 class, just ahead of high school teammate Jackson Arnold. Arnold, a quarterback, is No. 13 overall in the class and also considered a five-star prospect.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
