West Virginia pulled off a big-time hire over the weekend, officially landing Zac Alley as the team's new defensive coordinator. The move backs up the promise from some of WVU's biggest donors, showing that they are more than committed to helping assist Rich Rodriguez in returning the football program to national relevance,

The Oklahoma Sooners have another coordinator position to fill in the wake of Zac Alley's departure for West Virginia. The Sooners hired Ben Arbuckle to take over the offense after the regular season ended. Despite a 6-7 season, the Sooners will be an attractive job.

Oklahoma boasts a strong defensive corps despite the departures of Danny Stutsman and Billy Bowman to the NFL. There are several players up in the air, like R Mason Thomas, but OU will still have an intriguing group of talented players to work with on defense.
