David Stone is an American football defensive tackle for the Oklahoma Sooners.
Stone was born in Del City, Oklahoma and attended Del City High School for two years. As a freshman, he recorded 19 tackles and a sack playing in only six games behind an experienced defensive line for Del City.[1] Before his sophomore year, Stone attended the Rivals Underclassmen Challenge in Atlanta, Georgia, where he was named Defensive Line MVP. As a sophomore, he recorded 47 tackles and nine sacks and was named to The Oklahomans All-City First Team in 2021. In 2022, Stone transferred to IMG Academy and recorded 50 tackles, five sacks, and nine quarterback hurries as a junior and was later named to the MaxPreps Junior All-American. Becoming a key defensive unit, he helped the team allow only 3.0 points per game and 2.1 yards per rush, while forcing 30 turnovers. As a senior, he led the team to a 10–0 record and was named as a MaxPreps First-Team All-American.[2]
Stone became a consensus five-star prospect and was regarded as the best defensive tackle prospect. Rated as the No. 4 prospect by ESPN, No. 7 by Rivals, and No. 19 by 247Sports and On3, he committed to Oklahoma over offers from Florida, Miami (FL), Michigan State, Oregon, and Texas A&M.[3] |}
