Wow. I'm not sure if he will come down here but Woodward is doing his research.

Let's pretend you're right about this. Scott's just vetting Riley.

No one wants bob stoops and i feel like this is bob stoops contacting lsu.

Some of these old coaches just like to be talked to see if they still have it.

We ain’t hiring Bob Stoops

Would be an awful awful hire

Mel Tucker would be a 10x better hire, and I don’t really want Mel Tucker

Makes sense. He's a big name with a long record of success. That fits was Woodward traditionally has looked for. Plus, he's available now which would mean (a) he could jump right into recruiting once the season ends (very important due to the early signing period) and (b) there is no bidding war with his current school.

I don't think Stoops is the guy, but I would be stunned if the two sides at least didn't have a discussion (however brief) (See Pat Casey in the baseball search)

Stoops has been out of coaching for 5 years. He's not coaching again.

You’re misunderstanding me… I don’t like Mel Tucker as a candidate, at all.

Stoops is a worse candidate than Tucker.

At least Tucker has coached a CFB game in the last 5 years.

Big Game Bob has been out of coaching for quite some time and is 61 years old. Probably not a great fit.

Stoops only won it all once. Osborne won it 3 times.

If we're going after retired coaches, let's at least get one with some skins on the wall.

Stoops is OU first and always he wouldn't talk to lsu just to tell them about Riley. He would immediately run back fo OU and tell them to pony up and match it wouldn't be a smart negotiation tactic.

Plus there's no reason to reach out to stoops about Riley we all know how good Riley is.

Bob Stoops - like "Bob Stoops" Bob Stoops?

Hell, let's make Spurrier say no if we're going to get guys that removed from the game. Bobby Bowden has passed away, right? Terry is at UL-M.

"Bob Stoops"?

Exactly!

I would legitimately melt if Bob Stoops is the hire. There’s no possible way that could be the hire right?

Honestly we’d probably be better off with O than Bob Stoops
