Jason Witten to Be Named Oklahoma Offensive Coordinator After Ben Arbuckle Firing

Oklahoma is set to promote Jason Witten to offensive coordinator following the dismissal of Ben Arbuckle, according to reports. Witten, the former Dallas Cowboys tight end and 11-time Pro Bowler, makes a dramatic jump from coaching high school football at Liberty Christian School in Argyle, Texas, to leading an SEC offense. Veteran analyst Kevin Wilson, the former Indiana and Tulsa head coach, is expected to assist Witten in the transition. The move comes after Arbuckle's brief tenure ended amid offensive struggles. Witten's hiring brings instant name recognition and NFL credibility to Norman, but his lack of college coordinating experience raises questions about how quickly Oklahoma's attack can adapt. With Wilson's guidance, the Sooners hope to blend Witten's leadership and football IQ with proven schematic expertise. Oklahoma fans will be watching closely to see if the gamble pays off in a loaded SEC.
