Packers’ Milt Hendrickson on Collin Oliver, Who Was Injured at Oklahoma State
But who’s this $9 million replacement? Well, it’s none other than Oklahoma’s former quarterback coach and Tennessee’s HC Josh Heupel. Berry Tramel wasted no time in landing Brent Venables with this tough admission on the Saturday Down South show. “He’d be the first call, I assume. I have no idea if Josh would entertain the notion or accept. I have no idea. I do know this: he’s got a lot of—he still has a lot of ties. You know, family still lives here. His sister married the son of David Boren, the 24-year-old OU president. Prominent president. David Boren died last year.” Tramel said. Now, family ties can play a major role in it
But you know, Josh’s son-in-law—his brother-in-law—is a former United States congressman prominent Oklahoma. So they got a lot of Oklahoma ties still. So he wouldn’t—I don’t think he would dismiss it.” Berry added. However, it’s weird to think that after taking Tennessee to all new heights and ending last season with an extraordinary 10-3 record, moving to Oklahoma would be big. Even Berry Tramel feels the same, “I also think it’d be a very popular choice. I don’t know that he would do it. Like I said, Tennessee is a pretty good place to coach football.”
