3-5 in BCS games. 1-3 in the Championship. I think he would get similar results at OSU

I agree! He has been given a pass by the media when it comes to big games. Some might say that his team’s have underachieved.

I wouldn’t. He’s taken a school with no in-state recruiting base and made them perennial contenders in the Big 12. He’s a good coach.

He is a good coach, but the recruiting base is an interesting one. I would consider Texas to be a solid base for them… for some reason they have always seemed to recruit well out of there, even before Stoops. So I don’t know how much it’s him or the school.

I’m not too familiar with Oklahoma’s recruiting history, but it’s been proven that the further you move from your program’s location, the more difficult recruiting becomes. Stoops has done as well as any coach in the country at one school for a significant period.

His big game record is similar to Cooper’s. He does have the tradition there to help sell the program too. He’s a fine coach, i would prefer someone else though.
As for the story, i stopped when i saw it involed Rival’s. Anything pertaining to them i don’t care to see.
