Mike Stoops fired at OU

Reddit CFB link containing discussion/multiple tweets about firing

Apparently, the loss to Texas was the final straw (even though if Mike had any other last name than Stoops, he probably would've been gone the same day that Bob was).

"Boomer Sooner" plays faintly in the background

Sad day for the Big 12

So was this Riley’s decisions? If so, kudos to him for having a pair. Bad thing is OU may actually have a defense next year.

I miss Mike already.

To be a fly on that wall..

I wondered how that game was sitting with the locals. Apparently as bad as I imagined.

He should have been fired last year. OU fans hated him

So the next home game will be awkward when the TV crew brings Big Game Bob in to talk about the game.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy

Long con.

Lose to Texas.

Can still make CFP if win out.

Excuse to fire Stoops.

Have good defense going forward.

Hopefully they don’t hire our guy

Would have preferred they keep him. My dad and I were wondering earlier today how he managed to keep getting high profile jobs.

Part of who you know syndrome, all coaching ranks employ them.

With good reason. He is by far the worst DC in the Big 12 based on the talent he has and the defensive breakdowns

Last year? Hell he’s stunk since he’s been there.

Well, if OU actually gets a defense then lookout!

The National title year they had one of the best defenses in college football and he got credit for it. Turns out it was Brett Venerables who should of got credit.

I wonder if they want Parker at Iowa?
