NORMAN — Former Oklahoma coach Gary Gibbs is serving as a defensive consultant for Oklahoma State this season, but Lincoln Riley seemed open to the idea of bringing Gibbs back to OU if there was an opening.
“He's a great coach," Riley said Monday. "He's one of those guys that if we ever had something open here, that we would love to have back around."
Gibbs won't be officially hired as an analyst for Oklahoma State, but Cowboys coach Mike Gundy said Gibbs will start a “full-time schedule” next week.
Gibbs was a longtime Oklahoma assistant from 1975-88 before becoming the head man in 1989.
