Yep. He takes care of the people who hire him to take care of them. It’s also similar to QBs in the NFL. If you don’t want to pay your guy now, the question becomes who are you going to get instead.
Jimbo actually doesn’t have a buyout at all to leave. But unless LSU is willing to fully guarantee a deal like he has at A&M I don’t see the sense in making that move.
As long as Bob Stoops is around the OU program Heupel won’t be accepting any job in Norman. That relationship is rather frosty.
there’s some bad blood between them and I don’t think Heupel would go back after being the scapegoat for Stoops
Yes but Lane was dying for the SC job, once it was offered it was a forgone conclusion that he was leaving. Heupel wouldn’t touch the OU job right now.
Heupel to OU. Kiffin to Tennessee. Whatever the [uck fay] kind of hell that began in January of 2010 is complete.
In an alternate universe, Heupel has been the coach at Oklahoma for 6 years and Lincoln Riley has been here since 2015
