OU Executive Director of Football Administration Thad Turnipseed has parted ways with the Sooners.

Turnipseed joined the Sooners in 2022 after OU hired head coach Brent Venables. Turnipseed served as the Director of Football Recruiting and External Affairs for Clemson from 2013-2021 and worked alongside Venables during that time.

Prior to his stint with the Tigers, Turnipseed worked at his alma mater, Alabama, while Nick Saban began his tenure as coach of the Crimson Tide. Turnipseed was reportedly a driving force in OU's plan for a Football Operations Facility.
