This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

do not care for the Stoops comparison by tmr779
unless ND gets the "Bob" of the sisters in the process
this is all very much off topic (and, if unclear, am not a Mike Stoops fan):
do not think Mark Stoops (who is having success at UK) ever worked for Bob, though he did work for brother Mike at Arizona
Mike Stoops was hired away from Oklahoma/Bob by Arizona, came back to OU after being fired by Arizona, chasing away a co-defensive coordinator who went on to be an incredibly successful coordinator at Clemson and is now OU head coach
Mike was one of Nick Saban's analysts after being fired by Lincoln Riley at OU, but other than that don't think he has worked for anyone other than his brothers, Riley (briefly) and Bill Snyder at Kansas State
