With Lincoln Riley agreeing to become the new head coach at USC, multiple reports have now surfaced linking Brent Venables' name to the vacancy at Oklahoma.

One of those reports comes from OU Insider's Parker Thune, who links Venables, along with Ole Miss offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby, to the job.

Another report from Cam Marino also links Venables to the opening, citing his close relationship with athletic director Joe Castiglione.

WVU is going to need to sign 60 commits this year, due to all the teams losing commits and signing with WVU, per Volatality.

I'm all for it if we can get away with it.

With Bucky claiming Neal runs off players and commits 60 is probably about right.

Venables would be a bad hire. Charlie Strong 2.0. But I hate Oklahoma so hiring would be funny. The SEC transition would be epic in failure. I think it’s funny they have reached out to Kliff the Cardinal.

Don't personally care one way or the other. The 1990's are without a doubt returning for OU.

I'd take Venables in a heartbeat.

He may be a Charlie Strong but I'd wager against it. That dude can coach some defense.

Josh McDaniels would be a good fit.
