Nagy will lead roster building, player evaluation, recruiting, and compensation
NORMAN — The University of Oklahoma has hired Jim Nagy as the General Manager for Football while implementing a progressive new structure uniquely tailored to meet the most current challenges in college football. The general manager will work alongside the head football coach to construct a roster capable of competing at a championship level.
Since 2018, Nagy has served as the Executive Director of the Senior Bowl, the nation’s most prestigious college all-star game that showcases draft-eligible college football players, where he has been responsible for the identification, evaluation, recruitment, and selection of the top NFL prospects to be invited to the game. In his role, he cultivated relationships across college football, the agent community, and all 32 NFL front offices. In the past five game cycles, the Senior Bowl has produced more than 100 drafted players each year, representing more than 40 percent of those NFL Draft classes. Last year, the Senior Bowl had a record 110 total selections, including 45 of the top 100 players and 10 first-round picks.
