"First off, I would like to thank the University of Oklahoma and the coaching staff for believing in me and welcoming me with open arms," Webb wrote.
"It has been a wild recruiting process for me to say the least, but at the end of the day, I have to do what’s best for me.
"With that being said, due to the recent changes, my family and I have decided it is in my best interest to decommit from the University of Oklahoma."
