Brent Venables has an impressive 2024 class on the way for his 1st season in the SEC. Oklahoma has a verbal commitment from 1 true LB and 3-star commit named James Nesta.
Venables led the Sooners to a 10-win regular season, but fell just short of reaching the Big 12 title game. The Sooners would have had a rematch with Texas if they made it.
It could be hard for Oklahoma to make up for Stutsman’s production on the field. The Sooners play Arizona in the Alamo Bowl to close out the year.
