Vance Bedford Demoted from Defensive Coordinator after Oklahoma State Game
Just a day after being lit up for nearly half-a-hundred at Boone Pickens Stadium, Texas coach Charlie Strong has elected to demote defensive coordinator Vance Bedford to coach the secondary. The move was first reported by Rivals’ site Orangebloods.com.
Vance Bedford will coach the secondary with Clay Jennings.

Texas has given up 47, 7, 50 and 49 in four games this season, with the past two coming against air-raid attacks in Cal and OSU.
Mason Rudolph had a field day throwing across the middle on Saturday, finishing with 392 passing yards on just 19 attempts, and members of the Texas secondary looked less than impressive trying to bring down OSU receivers with poor tackling.
Strong called his defensive efforts to this point “unacceptable” in a press conference on Monday. “So I’m going to run the defense. I’m going to coach the defense,” he said.
Texas faces Oklahoma on Saturday in the Red River Showdown.
