No reasons were offered for the departures.

With Anderson and Williams apparently gone, Oklahoma is left with only three defensive tackles for March spring practices -- junior Torrea Peterson, sophomore Jordan Phillips and redshirt freshman Jordan Wade. They are also without a coach, after the firing of longtime position coach Jackie Shipp last week, the (Oklahoma City) Oklahoman reported Monday.
