University of Oklahoma<\/a> offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby has apologized for having his father-in-law, disgraced former Baylor football coach Art Briles, on the field with him during the Sooners\u2019 28-11 victory over SMU this past Saturday.<\/p>\n

Briles was fired by the Bears<\/a> in 2016 after an investigation found that he and his coaching staff did not take action against players who were named in sexual assault allegations.<\/p>\n

“Just want everybody to understand, my father-in-law \u2013 his presence on the field after the game the other night is just something that created a distraction,” Lebby said in a statement on Monday. “And I do \u2013 I apologize for that. That was not the intent at all. The intent was just to celebrate with my family.”<\/p>\n

Briles was seen wearing all Oklahoma gear at the Sooners\u2019 Owen Field, which caused much backlash on social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It got to the point where Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione and head coach Brent Venables were uncomfortable with Briles on the field.<\/p>\n

SOONERS’ BRENT VENABLES SAYS \u2018UNLIKE\u2019 DEION SANDERS, HE GAVE PLAYERS \u2018GRACE\u2019 PERIOD IN FIRST YEAR AS COACH<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I was just as disappointed as many of our fans when I learned of the postgame situation tonight,” Castiglione said in a statement on Saturday. “It shouldn\u2019t have happened, and it was my expectation it never would based on boundaries we previously set. I\u2019ve addressed it with the appropriate staff.”<\/p>\n

Lebby defended his father-in-law being on the field with his family after the game, saying “that\u2019s the grandfather of my two kids.” He also doubled down on Sunday, making the profile picture of his Instagram one with Briles and him on Oklahoma\u2019s field.<\/p>\n

But after conversations with Castiglione and Venables, Lebby said the situation won\u2019t happen again.<\/p>\n

“Joe Castiglione, Coach Venables both have addressed concerns with me, have talked to me about it, and again, can make sure that everybody understands that this is something that will not come up again,” he told reporters.<\/p>\n

Oklahoma is No. 19 in the AP Top 25 poll and will travel to Tulsa on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
