The University of Oklahoma has good folks working in Ichthyology. Check the website of the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History (link below). Dr. Edith Marsh-Mathews, Dr. Bill Mathews, and Dr. David McNeeley all do good, interesting work. You can also find their faculty profiles on the University of Oklahoma's webpages.
Good luck!

If you want to really study marine biology, you need to leave Oklahoma. A college or university with a marine biology program by the sea is going to provide you with more field study and research opportunities than one located in Oklahoma for obvious reasons.
P.S. - Ichthyology is the study of all fish, not just sharks.

there might not be any. sometimes to get a specific field that you really want, you have to go farther away. some schools have oceanography (like Colorado State University) but you might not be able to major in it; most likely, coastal located schools will have the specialities that you need--they want to be close to the place where they can actually go for hands-on training.

This is a great question, and one that has intrigued me for a very long time.
