Downers Grove South senior four-star ranked offensive tackle Erik Swenson (6-foot-5, 300 pounds) last night gave the Oklahoma Sooners his verbal commitment while making a weekend official visit in Norman, Oklahoma.

Swenson, who was asked to reopen his recruiting process just a few weeks ago by Michigan after being verbally committed to the Wolverines for over two years, made an unofficial visit to Wisconsin last weekend before visiting and pledging to the Sooner last night.

Oak Park-River Forest senior defensive end Allen Stallings (6-foot-2, 235 pounds) who gave Central Michigan is verbal commitment last week visited Indiana this weekend and gave the Hoosiers his verbal commitment this morning on his official visit.

"I'm on my way back now from Indiana." Stallings said. "Indiana came into school on Monday last week and said they wanted me to make an official visit this weekend. I visited and they offered me a full scholarship so I decommitted to Central Michigan and committed to the Indiana Hoosiers."

Stallings admitted that calling up the Central Michigan coaches to decommit was tough, but he also couldn't pass up the opportunity from Indiana.

"I really love the coaches at Central Michigan and they offered me a great opportunity. It was a really hard phone call for me to make. I know that I'm making the best possible decision I can at Indiana and I just hope they understand my choice. Everyone is on board with my decision and it just feels great."
