Big 12's Best Available Recruits: Wide Receivers

KD Cannon
With summer here and recruiting really starting to pick up, it's time to take a look at some of the top prospects at all position groups.  On Tuesday, we covered the best offensive lineman available and the receivers are up next.  Below are just some of the top WR prospects that have yet to commit.

KD Cannon:  If you have been following recruiting at all, you know who KD Cannon is.  Cannon is the top receiver receiver available for Big 12 programs.  A top 100 player overall, Cannon has interest in many Big 12 teams including Texas and Oklahoma, but Baylor is the reported front-runner with Texas Tech still in the mix.

Armanti Foreman:  Foreman was once a Sooner commit, but he decommitted back in early April.  The Texas City receiver, who is a borderline top 100 player, is still considering OU along with Texas A&M, but the clear favorite right now is Texas.

Mark Andrews:  Another top 100 player overall, Andrews hails from Arizona.  The Sooners are still in the mix, but so are several other programs including Notre Dame and a host of Pac 12 schools.

Corey Holmes:  Holmes is another out of the region receiver that Oklahoma is in the running for.  Like Mark Andrews, Oklahoma trails Notre Dame in 247Sports' Crysal Ball prediction for Holmes.

Keenan Brown:  Continuing with the out of state prospects with Oklahoma interest is Keenan Brown from Houston.  Opinions seem to differ heavily on Brown, who is listed at #74 among receivers by 247Sports, but is #219 overall in the Rivals250.  Anyway, Brown has a top two of Oklahoma and LSU.

Monte Harrison:  A 3-star prospect and the top receiver in Missouri has moderate interest in the Jayhawks according to his 247Sports profile.

Jacob McCrary:  McCrary, a Miami native, seems to really like West Virginia($) along with Clemson and Florida State.  247Sports' Crystal Ball feature has him as a future Mountaineer.

Dorian Leonard:  The 6'4 prospect out of Longview is arguably a top 5 receiver in Texas for 2014.  Oklahoma seems to be the favorite, but don't count out Texas.
