In a highly anticipated return to Norman, the Oklahoma Sooners have officially named Landry Jones, their all-time leading passer, as the new quarterbacks coach. The move comes as part of the university’s ongoing effort to build a coaching staff that blends past success with the future of Oklahoma football.
Jones, who played for the Sooners from 2008 to 2012, is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in the history of the program. During his college career, he set multiple records, including becoming Oklahoma’s career leader in passing yards, completions, and passing touchdowns. Jones led the Sooners to numerous victories, including a Big 12 Championship, and solidified himself as one of the top quarterbacks in college football during his tenure in Norman.

In his new role, Jones will work closely with the quarterbacks to improve their skills, leadership, and football IQ, drawing from his own experience as one of the most prolific passers in college football history. This move also underscores the Sooners’ commitment to excellence at all levels of their program, as they continue to build a team that competes at the highest level.
Oklahoma fans are excited to see the return of a familiar face, one who helped shape the Sooners’ football legacy. With Jones now on the coaching staff, the future of Oklahoma quarterbacks looks bright.
