Social Media Reacts: Sooners OC Jeff Lebby named next head coach at Mississippi State

Jeff Lebby was named the next head coach at Mississippi State and here’s how social media reacted.

The Oklahoma Sooners will have an offensive coordinator position to fill with the departure of Jeff Lebby to Mississippi State.

It was announced Sunday evening that Lebby agreed to a five-year deal to become the Bulldogs next head coach. Mississippi State is coming off of a 5-7 season in which they went 1-7 in SEC play.

Lebby takes over a tall task on an offense that finished 107th in points per game, 104th in total yards, and 111th in passing yards per game.

In 2023, Lebby helped the Sooners to No. 4 in the nation in total yards and No. 3 in scoring. There were some down moments like in the losses in Lawrence and Stillwater, but overall, he helped guys like Dillon Gabriel and Drake Stoops have career years.

Now, the question turns to who will take over. Seth Littrell has been mentioned as a possible replacement. But as the Sooners look into replacing Lebby, here’s how social media reacted to the news.
