North Texas Tight End Transfer Oscar Hammond Commits to Oklahoma State
PORTAL TRACKER
The Cowboys have picked up a second tight end of the transfer portal.
North Texas transfer Oscar Hammond has committed to Oklahoma State, according to 247Sports’ Chris Hummer. Hammond is an Oklahoma native, playing his high school ball at Collinsville. As a 6-foot-3, 236-pound junior with the Mean Green in 2024, Hammond caught 19 passes for 238 yards and a touchdown.
The 2024 season was Hammond’s first at North Texas, as he started his college career in Edmond at UCO. Playing 19 games in two seasons with the Bronchos, he caught 58 passes for 790 yards and five touchdowns. Collinsville won the 5A state title in Hammond’s senior season.
Hammond joins Central Arkansas transfer Jordan Owens as a second tight end transfer in the Cowboys’ portal class. Part of a two-commit Friday evening, Hammond joins defensive end Kyran Duhon (UTEP) as the ninth and 10th commits the Cowboys have gotten out of the portal. Other offensive players in the class are linemen Kasen Carpenter (Tulsa) and Lavaka Taukeiaho (Weber State) and running back Kalib Hicks (Oklahoma).
Tyler Foster finished out his eligibility in 2024, but OSU also played true freshman Josh Ford quite a bit this past season. The Cowboys also signed high school tight end Jordan Vyborny to join Hammond and Owens as newcomers in the room. That position room has undergone a leadership change this offseason, as along with a host of other staff moves, OSU has reportedly brought in DJ Tialavea from Utah State to coach Cowboy tight ends.
