Cole Sullivan brings plug-and-play SEC-ready versatility to Oklahoma’s linebacker room
In the 2026 season, Cole Sullivan arrives at Oklahoma as a former Michigan transfer with real starter-level traits: 6-foot-4, 231 pounds, three interceptions, two sacks, and 44 tackles in 2025, plus strong special-teams value[1][7][14]. He’s drawn praise for toughness, leadership, and versatility, with Brent Venables calling out his ability to help on defense and special teams[7]. Why care? He looks like the kind of high-motor, multi-use linebacker who can raise a defense’s ceiling fast — and yes, that’s exactly the kind of guy you want if you need speed, range, and attitude in the middle of the field[2][8][14].
