According to The Oklahoman, Oklahoma Sooners coaches are telling recruits they are switching to a 3-4 base defense in 2013.
The Sooners are losing four defensive tackles to the NFL, and Jordan Phillips is the only remaining interior defensive lineman with quality playing experience. It will be a big shift away from the traditional four man front and the Sooners spend plenty of time with five defensive backs and only two linebackers on the field. The school is starting fresh in 2013 with plenty of younger players getting a chance to step into starting roles. Jan 31 - 9:44 AM

Aaron Colvin - DB - Sooners

Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops stated that junior CB Aaron Colvin "is every bit the corner Jamell Fleming is."

Fleming was the Sooners' top senior defensive back last season and was drafted in the third-round last April. Colvin was a first-year starter last season at strong safety, but made the transition to cornerback in the offseason. Although he does not have the same thickness that Fleming possessed, the junior does play better in space and eld the team in tackles in 2011 with 84.
