What is Brent Venables looking for in OU's next offensive coordinator?

The Oklahoma Sooners are looking for their next offensive coordinator. So what is most important to Brent Venables?

The Oklahoma Sooners are in the midst of searching for an offensive coordinator following their decision to part ways with Ben Arbuckle. Jason Witten currently holds the interim title and may be considered for further roles depending on Oklahoma's performance. Brent Venables, the team's head coach, emphasized the importance of a strong offense that can consistently score touchdowns.

He stated that the Sooners need someone who can help them become more explosive, balanced, and efficient in both running and passing plays. Venables also highlighted the significance of turnover margin, as it greatly impacts game outcomes. This focus on offensive performance is driven by the team's struggles in scoring over the past two and a half years, with Oklahoma currently ranked 109th in the nation in scoring offense.
