Curious why Bob Stoops walked away so early.

Felt like he was a good coach. Just kind of went away.

He said he didn't want to die from a grabber on the sideline like his dad.

I've never heard that he actually had health problems, otherwise I doubt he would still be doing the XFL/UFL thing, or coaching a bowl for OU after Riley left. I think he was just burned out with the stress of full-time CFB.

He said his Dad died early from working too much and he had his own health problems creeping up on him.

Pretty sure his Dad died on the sidelines, Bob walked away rich and happy.
