Jeff Lebby
Lebby played high school football at Andrews High School. He earned All-State honors his senior year and signed with Oklahoma to play football. An injury ended his playing career in college. After the injury ended his playing career, he switched to coaching and stayed at Oklahoma as a student assistant. At Oklahoma, he would meet then-Oklahoma quarterback and future boss Josh Heupel. He left Oklahoma to coach the offensive line and tight ends at Victoria High School (Texas). Lebby came back to the collegiate ranks in 2008, and served various roles for Baylor across nine seasons which included passing game coordinator for two seasons. From 2008 to 2011, he was the assistant director of football operations. He also served five seasons as a running backs coach. While coaching at Baylor University, Lebby was named by Baylor student Dolores Lozano as one of the coaches that took no action against running back Devin Chafin after she reported being physically assaulted three times by him. After Art Briles was terminated by Baylor, Lebby defended Briles, who is also Lebby's father-in-law, and sold shirts with #CAB (Coach Art Briles) in a show of continued support. He got his first full time offensive coordinator opportunity at Southeastern, an NAIA school in Florida. He helped lead Southeastern to the Mid-South Conference Sun Division title and a playoff berth. Southeastern would finish with the No. 1 scoring offense and the No. 3 total offense in the NAIA that year. On December 24, 2017, UCF announced the hire of Lebby as their quarterback coach and passing game coordinator, reuniting with Josh Heupel. Under his guidance, quarterback McKenzie Milton was 7th in yards per attempt and 9th in passing efficiency rating. Milton would finish 6th in Heisman Trophy voting that year. He was promoted to offensive coordinator the following year in 2019. His offense ranked 5th in total offense and true freshman quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw for 3,653 yards and 29 touchdowns. On December 11, 2019, Lebby was hired by Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss to serve in the same role as he did at UCF. In his first season with the Rebels, Lebby's offense ranked eighth in total offense. On January 6, 2021, Lebby signed a two-year extension with Ole Miss. On December 8, 2021, Oklahoma football finalized a deal for Lebby to be the Sooners' new offensive coordinator.
