    College Football 2017

    Bob Stoops is retiring at Oklahoma. Again, very strange timing.

    Mack to Oklahoma?
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    Not until next year. Lincoln Riley is going to steer that ship for a year.

    Word on the street is that it's neither, his father died coaching mid-game from a heart attack, and he's always said he didn't want to go into his 60s coaching, he has two sons, 1 being 17 about to be high school senior and is getting college offers at WR, he wants to spend more time with his family. When you've won a national title, numerous BCS bowls, and earned enough money to last two life-times, you can let it go. He wanted to do it before the spring game, but the AD asked him to consider it. Everyone in the Big 12 circles knew Lincoln Riley was basically head coach in waiting, just didn't know when Stoops would step down.

    Good for him! Wonder what he's been paid over the last 18 years. I'm sure it's "enough". Go enjoy life and your family.

    I was thinking it was going to be sanctions or something since two of his best players last year had beaten the shit out of women but I guess not.

    That's only from 2012. Though the last few years until 2020 won't count, trust me, he's made plenty lol.
