Northwestern adds former Oklahoma QB commit Gavin Frakes


Quarterback Gavin Frakes is transferring to Northwestern after previously committing to Oklahoma, On3 reported Wednesday.

Frakes, who did not see any action at Virginia last season, made a verbal pledge to his hometown Sooners out of the spring transfer portal on May 22.

The 6-foot-4, 232-pounder from Norman, Okla., entered the portal on April 21.
