The master plan (Stoops)?

Not only NO, hell NEAUX

Stoops would destroy teams with LSU talent.

Always good to hire a 60 year old retired coach to bring your football team back to national prominence

Kansas St did it. Snyder was 65 when he left K St. Came back at 69 and in his 3rd hear they went 10-3 (they had back to back 5-7 seasons before he came back). He then went 11-2 the next year with a Heisman contender at QB.

Stoops was an old defensive coach, he developed the love for a wide open pass offense before he went to Oklahoma. I bet LSU would have their best passing season that they've ever had, in his first year.

I'd rather go younger (Gundy, Mullen, Feunte, Taggart, Brohm if he continues to do good, Chad Morris, etc), but I'd still take him in a heartbeat.

There will never be a new Gruden

Stoops had more talent and Heisman winners in nearly two decades at OU than most teams in recent history. And he won a lot of Big12 titles, in a weak conference with optional defensive play.

And he had one National Championship win. In his second year. So his last 15+ years at one of the premier college football schools, with ridiculous talent, recruiting, financial support and resources, Stoops won zero Nattys. Zero.

Sure, he breezed through a weak and overrated conference to make his way to national title games. But what did he do when his teams got there? Remember our Tigers embarrassing OU's prolific "unstoppable" offense? And it only got worse for them when USC amd Florida raped their nostrils.

Stoops was a good coach. But, not as good as he's been made out to be.
