Oklahoma State has officially fired defensive coordinator Todd Grantham after just four games into what’s quickly become a disastrous season for the Cowboys. The move, though somewhat delayed, felt inevitable given the historically poor defensive performance the program has endured this fall. While some expected this decision to come alongside the firing of head coach Mike Gundy last week, it ultimately came one week later— and perhaps a final straw following a collapse against Baylor.
Now, Clint Bowen will step into the role on an interim basis, tasked with stabilizing a defense that has been among the worst in college football and giving the new coaching regime a chance to compete over the rest of the season.
