Oklahoma Sooners Land CB Jocelyn Malaska
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound cornerback will have 3 years of eligibility remaining. He strengthens an already strong secondary for the Sooners which should help them shut down top passing offenses. The Sooners have seen a lot of players leave so head coach Brent Venables has some holes to fill on the roster. Getting Malaska is one step in filling out the roster.
2024 Outlook
The beginning of the season sees some favorable matchups for the Sooners. The back half of the season is brutal. In four out of the last five weeks, they play Ole Miss, Missouri, LSU, and Alabama. The good news for the program is that they will have the first part of the season to work out some kinks before playing their toughest matchups. More importantly, the team needs to figure out their quarterback situation as they have missed a lot of the top portal targets.
Can the Oklahoma Sooners compete in 2024? The roster has a long way to go but there is a full offseason ahead of them.
