The stars would have to align perfectly over Oklahoma, but the Sooners' next football coach could be the greatest to ever do it.
As the 2025 college football season nears with OU coach Brent Venables on the hot seat, coaching legend Nick Saban could be on the market if the Sooners need to replace Venables. Former Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy, who played for Saban, said Monday on his radio show that a person "in the know" believes Saban will return to coaching despite retiring after the 2023 season.
“If it wasn’t someone notable, I would never say a word," McElroy added.
