NORMAN – Oklahoma head men's basketball coach Porter Moser announced Wednesday the signing of 2022 guards Otega Oweh, Benny Schröder and Milos Uzan to National Letters of Intent.
Oweh and Uzan are both ranked in the ESPN100 and it is the first time since the 2019 signing class that two Sooner signees have been in the ESPN100.
"All three incoming freshmen have high character and are proven winners, who bring length, athleticism and skill to the court," said Moser. "They all can be two-way players with their highly competitive mindset. I am excited to have them join our Sooner family."
A 6-6 guard from Somerset, N.J., Oweh is a four-star prospect on ESPN.com, 247Sports and Rivals. Oweh is ranked No. 73 by 247Sports, No. 76 by Rivals and No. 89 by ESPN nationally. Oweh appeared in 56 career games for Blair Academy prior to his senior season.
"I love Otega's work ethic, character and that he is a proven winner," said Moser. "He uses his athleticism in the transition game and plays with an edge. He comes from a great high school program at Blair Academy and led his EYBL team to the EYBL circuit championship. Love the length he brings to the court and believe he will be a great two-way player for us."
During the 2019-20 campaign for Blair Academy, he averaged 14.9 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.4 steals and 1.9 assists per game. Oweh led Team Final EYBL (PA) to a 17U Peach Jam title and averaged 14.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.3 assists per game. He was named Nike EYBL Peach Jam Breakout Player of the Session.
Uzan, a 6-4 point guard from Las Vegas, is ranked No. 52 on the ESPN100 and the No. 1 prospect in Nevada. He is a four-star prospect by 247Sports and ESPN and a three star by Rivals. Uzan and Dream City Christian (Ariz.) attended the 2021 Geico Top Flight Invite.
"Milos is a long and athletic point guard that makes everyone around him better," Moser said. "He is a coach's son with an extremely high basketball IQ. He uses his length off ball screens and is a great facilitator with his court vision. He led his AAU team to the adidas circuit championship and plays for a great high school program."
Uzan also played for Prolific Prep in the 30-game Grind Session in Arizona and averaged 13 points, 6.0 assists and 5.0 rebounds per game.
Prior to his time in Arizona, he led Desert Pines High School to the 2020 Nevada state championship game.
Schröder, a 6-7 wing from Germany, was labeled the top international prospect by ESPN. He plays for Kickz IBAM (International Basketball Academy Munich) in the U19 NBBL, and averages 29 points, 6.0 boards and 4.0 assists per game.
He played for the U18 German National Team that played in the 2021 FIBA U18 European Challengers tournament. He averaged 16.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 23 minutes per game. In Germany's final game against North Macedonia, he tallied 21 points on 9-for-12 shooting.
"Benny is a highly-competitive, athletic guard that gives us great size," stated Moser. "He brings a wealth of experience playing against high-level competition for many years in Europe. He is a three-level scorer, who can get to the rim, has a midrange shot and a 3-point game. He is also a playmaker and will use his athletic ability in transition."
Prior to his time with IBA, He played the 2020-21 season for TSV Oberhaching and spent time with FC Bayern Munich U16 (2017-19) and U19 (2019-20) teams. In 2019, he was named the JBBL (U19) Top 4 MVP.
The trio of incoming guards will make their first appearance in the Crimson and Cream in 2022, while the 2020-21 team hosts UTSA Nov. 12 at 7 p.m., at Lloyd Noble Center.
