Gilliam picked Oklahoma over Virginia Tech in the Class of 2021 (the Hokies' nadir when it came to in-state recruiting incompetence under the Justin Fuente staff), with Penn State and South Carolina among the finalists. The Richmond native attended Highland Springs High School, which has played a key role in the Hokies' return to recruiting power in the Commonwealth - including with incoming transfers like HSHS alum and former Old Dominion receiver Ali Jennings.
The 6-3, 299-pound Gilliam played four games while redshirting in 2021, then was a rotation player a year ago. He made three tackles in six appearances this year to bring his total to 10 stops as a Sooner.
He will have two years to play two in Blacksburg.
