Nobody is playing Scott, he is a puppet master not a puppet like Alleva

Riley is worth the risk bud. He’s the only name in the mix that’s a splash hire. The closest after him is Jimbo.

You’ve mentioned Stoops a lot in this process …any updates there?…

And Stoops lives in Norman, also.

I melted initially at the possibility of Stoops, but I’ve slowly come on board after giving it more thought…would be a good hire.

Lateral move?? If LSU was 9-0, do you think they’d be ranked #8 right now?? Answer that question to yourself and then re-think that “lateral move” comment.

I'm starting to come around to Stoops. It may have been him all along.

How do you know SW has even talked to him or his agent? Do you have some solid info to share that we are negotiating with the agent?
I want to believe we are, he’s the only name that I feel is a home run. And I was against it at first.

LSU has won 3 national championships and played for another since the last time OU won one. How is that a lateral move?

Mississippi state would have beaten LSU,A&M, and Bama to be 9-0. Chokelahoma has never had a schedule like that.

. It's funny that some of you think coaches think this way or that they will all come simply because you offer them more money.

Stoops would take the LSU job, if offered.

Riley will not get in Stoop's way. That's why he won't respond to LSU.

Dumbest thing I’ve heard on tRant. May God have mercy on you my boy.

Stoops:

“That’s not something I’m looking to do. You fit certain places, and I don’t know that I’d be a very good fit at LSU, and I’m sure they know that as well.”

I hope this is sarcasm. So coaches don’t want a more direct path to the NC, nor do they want more money?? Interesting
