Sooners cannot stop NFL pull as top defensive assistant departs for Bills job
BRYAN TERRY/THE OKLAHOMAN / USA TODAY NETWORKOklahoma did enough for co-defensive coordinator and cornerbacks coach Jay Valai to be able to resist a job at a different blue-blood program, but a chance in the NFL was just too irresistible for the Sooners to overcome.
