Jim Knowles shuns the Buckeyes and Sooners for Penn State

In this episode of Sooner State of Mind, stoke levels are rising. Even though it was only hearsay, the word was Jim Knowles was in play to be the defensive coordinator for the Oklahoma Sooners for the 2025 season. Instead, Knowles found over 3 million reasons to head to Pennsylvania and became the highest-paid defensive coordinator in college football history. No word on what the Sooners will do moving forward. Speaking of moving forward, a handful of Sooners are moving on, and hopefully, that move is to the NFL. Billy Bowman, Ethan Downs, and Luke Elzinga will be performing in front of NFL personnel as they try to take their talents to the next level. Speaking of the next level, the Sooners once again will be the most represented college team at the Super Bowl. We will tell you who. We also talk a little Baker Mayfield who just earned back-to-back Pro Bowl appearances as well as take a look back at Ohio State's win over Notre Dame in the National Championship. It's time to get into a Sooner State of Mind! footballdudesla footballdudeslaIG footballdudesfacebook
