STILLWATER — It’s probably happened somewhere, at some point.
But it’s hard to imagine any major college football team — but especially one with the stability and consistency of Mike Gundy’s Oklahoma State Cowboys — making a full change of its offensive and defensive assistant coaching staff with the head coach remaining in place.
Now that the dust has settled on a topsy-turvy 2 ½ weeks for Cowboy football, Gundy was the only one of the 11 primary coaches who remained. And even then, Gundy is in line for a pay cut going forward.
He kept some key support staff in place, like strength and conditioning coordinator Rob Glass, who has been with the program for the entirety of Gundy’s 20 years as head coach.
Special teams is the only part of the positional coaching staff that held steady.
Gundy hired Sean Snyder, the former Kansas State punter and longtime assistant, last summer to coach punters and kickers, joining analyst Joseph Foteh, who had been the man behind the construction of OSU’s special teams game plans.
They will remain in charge of special teams coaching and schemes.
But the entire offensive and defensive staffs are new. That said, the new faces come with a wide variety of experience, including several who have been coordinators and a couple who have been head coaches at lower levels.
Who’s out and who’s in? Let’s take a look:
