Message: [QUOTE="bags27, post: 2224352, member: 6761"] Never liked Stoops or the OSU football program which I've never forgiven for having employed that twisted, win-at-all-costs Barry Switzer--whom Stoops brought back from his well-deserved disgrace to being honored there. The height of historical cynicism. Wondering (hoping!) that Stoops was gently forced out to assure that they could keep Riley. After all, Stoops has never repeated the success of 2000--which wasn't completely his team, since he was in his 2nd year there--and hasn't been even theoretically contending for a national championship since around 2009. That's a millennium to those folks in Norman. There are very few honorable D-1 football coaches left. It's such big business with massive pay-offs. All started with Jackie Sherrill signing that huge Texas A&M contract. In many weird ways--and I feel nuts even writing this--the NFL, which is massively vulgar and hypocritical, seems less corrupt than D-1 football. [/QUOTE]
