Brent Venables - Oklahoma Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Coordinator
  • LB coach at Kansas State from 1996-98 after starting as a graduate assistant (93-95).  He also played linebacker for the Wildcats from 1990-92.  During his time as a player and coach, he worked with seven of the nine coaches currently on staff, including Bill Snyder, who was his head coach.


Larry Coyer - ex-Indianapolis Colts Defensive Coordinator
  • LB coach at UCLA from 1987-89.  Tom Hayes was the defensive coordinator at UCLA from 1982-88.
