Just In: Oklahoma Sends Off Another Strong Player To Hurricanes.
NORMAN — Oklahoma coach Brent Venables opened Wednesday’s spring practice press conference with some good news.
Senior safety/linebacker Justin Harrington’s appeal to the NCAA for a medical hardship season has been granted, Venables said.
The Sooners open spring practice on Monday and wrap up with annual Red/White Game on April 20.
Harrington, a former junior college All-American who has played cornerback, safety and the nickel linebacker spot, will practice this spring after a knee injury early last season.
The Venables family also revealed some good news beyond the football field earlier in the day: Julie Venables told the Oklahoman that she had “zero cancer” after being diagnosed with breast cancer last June.
Venables also confirmed the hiring of Zac Alley as defensive coordinator as well as numerous other support staff and aides.
