New coordinator Alex Grinch is reorienting the Oklahoma Sooners’ defense with an aggressive, attacking scheme. That transition requires figuring out how existing personnel on the roster fit the new defense’s objectives.
Some holdovers have a natural fit in Grinch’s defense. In other spots, the coaching staff will need to figure out how to make do with a few jagged edges. Additionally, some players may end up looking for new homes – players such as DL Ron Tatum and edge K’Jakyre Daley have already entered the transfer portal since the beginning of the year.
