Schroder, regarded as one of the top international recruits, is already 18 years old and has graduated high school but plans to take a gap year before enrolling next season, according to ESPN.
"I am absolutely sure about Oklahoma and wanted to commit during the early signing period to put the focus on my game again," Schroder told ESPN.
The 6-foot-7 wing is coach Porter Moser and the Sooners' third recruit in the 2022 cycle, joining consensus four-star guards Milos Uzan and Otega Oweh.
