Raegan Beers Declares Loyalty to Sooners in Emotional Statement
Norman, OK — April 2025
In a heartfelt message that has resonated across the college basketball community, Oklahoma Sooners star center Raegan Beers has made her future intentions crystal clear: she’s staying in Norman.
Amid speculation surrounding the transfer portal and player movement across the country, Beers took to social media with a powerful image and declaration, promising her commitment to the Sooners program. “I’m not going anywhere. Boomer Sooner, forever.”
The junior standout, who transferred from Oregon State and quickly became a cornerstone of Jennie Baranczyk’s squad, expressed deep appreciation for the program, her teammates, and the university. “I want to build something great here, leave a legacy, and do it alongside teammates I consider family,” her message read.
Beers’ dominance in the paint and her leadership on and off the court have made her a fan favorite and a critical component of Oklahoma’s SEC success this past season. Averaging a double-double and earning All-SEC honors, her return signals continuity and championship ambition for the Sooners heading into the 2025–26 season.
Coach Baranczyk responded to the announcement with equal enthusiasm, stating, “Raegan’s heart, grit, and loyalty define what it means to be a Sooner. We’re just getting started.”
As the women’s basketball landscape shifts, Raegan Beers’ vow to stay rooted in Oklahoma offers fans a refreshing reminder of what team loyalty looks like — and a reason to believe that something special is brewing in Norman.
