Jeff Lebby has seen ‘real growth’ in his offense’s situational execution
We are ten days until the start of the 2023 Oklahoma Sooners football season. While the Sooners offense has question marks, it is expected to be great once again.
Will they be elite like we’ve seen in the past? Probably not. It really depends on what weapons step up at wide receiver.
Offensive Coordinator Jeff Lebby told reporters he’s seen some improvement this offseason.
“There’s been a lot of good,” Lebby said. “There’s been plenty that we’re continuing to work through and fix and just continuing to create depth at every single position. I do like where we are at. I like our guy’s attitude, effort, and toughness. We’ve got to continue to get better. I think our guys understand that as we work toward next Saturday.”
Lebby helped lead the 13th-best offense in the nation a year ago. It was an offense that played extremely fast, almost to the detriment of the team. Another thing they’ve really emphasized this offseason is situational football.
“It’s still a work in progress,” Lebby said. “I think as you stand here right now, we’re ten days away from game day, you always want more. I think that’s the natural part of coaching, but at the same time, there has been real growth.”
That now has to translate to owning the football field on game days. It’s something that hindered this team a year ago and resulted in so many close losses.
It’s been a big topic not just offensively this offseason but for the entire team to improve in their situational football execution. That will hopefully help them come out on the other side of those close games in 2023.
