Bob Stoops to Coach Cleveland Browns?

Big Bear · 01-03-14, 08:24 AM

dude u should work for espn

InTheDrink · 01-03-14, 09:00 AM

that would be completely ego driven for him to go to the browns of all places

he'd get paid and be done in two or three years.....sure he could come back to college but who knows where he'd land and what situation he'd end up in

there arent many worse jobs in coaching than the browns job

thetrinity · 01-03-14, 10:01 AM

interesting never thought of him as nfl guy really.

i think he stays at ou.

The Kraken · 01-03-14, 10:41 AM

Bob ain't going to the browns

BigdaddyQH · 01-03-14, 11:52 AM

Stoops is very happy at OU. With the team he has coming back in he has to be one of the pre-season favorites to win the Big 12 in '14. He is not going anywhere.

God himself could coach the Browns and they'd still struggle to win 5-6 games a year

dudekid · 01-03-14, 12:16 PM

i dont see him being a front runner for the job in cleveland

maggiethebestdog · 01-03-14, 01:22 PM

it's only a couple games. stoops has done less with more his whole career. shitty conference and got lucky one time. before this game, worst bowl coach ever. now he beats a bama team who didn't even wanna be there and he's a genius. him and his brothers are the biggest clowns i have ever seen.

But that may be the perfect argument for leaving for the bigger money now.

Average coach with good talent
he might be better suited for pro ball with his personailty

You don't resign from a head coaching job at OK just after beating Alabama.

Grits n' Gravy · 01-03-14, 01:57 PM

Stranger things have happened. He could work in pros. It's not like Browns have expectations of ever winning a big game.

Mike Zimmer should be the top candidate for any head coach opening.

Otters27 · 01-03-14, 05:42 PM

I would like to see Stoops try the NFL. If I were Cleve I would not give McDanials a chance. He ruined denver almost

EaglesPhan36 · 01-03-14, 06:05 PM

Think this BS gets leaked if Bama had won? The guy tweets an opinion and people run with it. Social media has crippled accurate information posting.

this. Why teams never pursue him is just beyond me

Zimmer is a hot commodity right now, Vikings, Redskins, and Lions are all interested in him.

Stoops held out for so long, though

turned down several pro opportunities

daneblazer · 01-03-14, 10:56 PM

Stoops just built a mansion in Norman. He's not going anywhere unless they run him off.

some guys are just best off staying as coordinators.

Agree. Turner and Phillips come to mind. I'm willing to give a guy a pass if he bombs his first hc job though. After a couple of failures it is clear they didn't learn much from first go round.

BigDofBA · 01-04-14, 01:12 AM

Stoops isn't leaving. Trust me.

He already makes enough money and could coach at OU another 15 years. He built a castle in Norman. He will retire here.

Why leave the job security for the Browns? They fire coaches yearly. I doubt he would make much more money there anyway.

shaunovery · 01-05-14, 05:55 AM

Dont think hes nfl calibre good in college but not for the nfl

Mr KLC · 01-05-14, 08:06 AM

Fisher and Saban have used other job openings to increase their salaries at home. Why not Stoops?

Sharp fkn post. Stoops isn't moving, he's negotiating. Can't blame him. He earned the right in New Orleans Thursday night.

Cleveland sports talk falling for the Stoops BS

There seems to be a shortage of good coaches these days

Very true. I know Nebraska won't fire Bo Pelini because they are not confident to find someone better

Cross · 01-05-14, 11:22 AM

Ok for life seems better for him.

Stoops has done this before as well.

He isn't taking the Browns job but he'll just stay quiet and act coy and OU will probably give him more money.

JerseyRobby · 01-05-14, 12:07 PM

The game is real simple beat Nick Saban and then have your name floated around that you might be checking out NFL jobs. Ring, ring, ring Oklahoma calls you up and before you know it you get a nice raise.
