    I don’t think this is worth worrying about. If it happens ok, but I don’t think it will. I’m good. Looking forward to CJH v2

    Don't forget that this time around we also have an AD with a nice sized ego that by the way has a huge stadium renovation project underway. He isn't about to let him walk out the door. He may be making 20M next year, but Dr. Danny White MD JD MBA PHD isn't letting him walk easily.

    This is the thinking that keeps it at defcon 2 for me, and not 1. Still, I won't be relaxed until OU hires someone else. I do not want to be coach searching at this late hour.

    I believe Heupel is enjoying Oklahoma twisting in the wind a little bit. He was going to work for Stoops as the OC and gracefully move up when Bob retired.

    What happened was Oklahoma underachieved, Stoops was told to shake up his staff and he chose to keep his brother instead of Heupel. Riley got the unofficial head coach in waiting tag.

    Stoops and Heupel haven't spoke much since then, if at all.

    Heupel will get a raise from this most likely and Mark Stoops will end up the new head coach.

    A simple “I was wrong about you. Here’s 7 million per annum” would probably fix a lot.

    If Oklahoma doesn’t offer him the job this time, he’s a Vol as long as we want him.

    And he’ll get fired after their first year in the SEC

    Under the circumstances of the relative success of Year 1 and this, just pay the man what you have to because we can't afford to wander in the wilderness.

    Other than simply going with gut I would not be shocked at all if Bob came out of retirement.

    Some people may not like it but we would match the 7 million if it came to that

    Jeff Lebby and Mark Stoops seem to be the top two right now

    It may not be there between him and OU in general but it definitely is between him and Stoops. Numerous sources have said Heupel has refused to speak to Stoops since the firing. And Stoops is still involved in the operations at OU.

    Either of these would be great for UT. Losing Lebby would hurt Kiffin and UK would go back to the Joker Phillips days if they lost Stoops.
