Bob Stoops: "Lincoln Riley didn't invent OU Football"

[@TheKrazyinjun]

Thank you Coach Stoops, thank you for everything!

[@cowboyz2k3]

EVERYTHING!!! 1999-2022

[@steveabbott1202]

I can think, as an OU rabid fan since I was 13 in 1971, of several keystone moments in OU football. But none, absolutely none, were as positively impactful as hiring Bob Stoops. Look at Nebraska and know that Bob saved Sooner football and I will always consider him, Bud and Barry the best OU coaches in history, with Bob being the most important cog….period.

Oklahoma invented lincoln riley.

[@soonerfan4439]

Bob Stoops you do deserve this recognition on your own, you leadership effected those around you and that's what made them great as well. You did it the right way and still do. Hope you and your family remain in Oklahoma and as a part of OU forever. Thank you Coach Bobby Stoops!

[@alec_f1]

SOONER!!! What a class act and just a wonderful human being. I said years ago that I didn't care if he remained head coach forever. I'd take never getting a championship to keep him around after seeing him at OU Children's visiting all the little cancer patients and hurt kids there. He's as solid of a good human being as they come.

[@tylerjohnson843]

Truly a classy man Bob , Sooner nation is proud to have you. Thanks for all the hard work and sacrifices. Awesome to see him hanging around the program. The people of Oklahoma know and appreciate loyalty.

Coach Stoops: your amazing! Your the biggest part of OU football and have put out many great guys in life.

[@zacharylansing]

Thank you coach

[@CiviTac]

For Bob to say that about Riley, he must be really upset with how everything went down. Stoops always thinks before he speaks, very gracious and humble in all his success. I can only imagine what his real opinion on Riley must be now

[@gavster_killa4591]

I love bob stoops! It use to drive me insane when ou would go maybe 10-2 9-3 and fans wanted him fired obviously don’t remember the John Blake or Howard S era!

[@markraines7476]

You spelled BITCH wrong

[@russellneese8754]

Well said

[@cowboyz2k3]

@UCvlbrpWd5RmJW4vBdEwuE2w, the fool had no defense which got OU slaughtered in CFP.......glad he left

[@robbyclark6915]

I always thought Bud, Barry, Bob, Lincoln??? It just never did fit.

[@thunderousooner527]

Were is Benny Owens at?

[@kenthall9959]

Not since Mama Selmon has one person had such a positive impact on the OU football program. The 'Lincoln Riley era' is the gnat on an elephant's ass in the history of OU. GOOD RIDDANCE!

[@jeremyhaight5593]

Love you coach stoops Boomer Sooner

[@kellyfreeman8217]

BOOMER SOONER ❤️🏈

[@jdizlle09]

Bobby!

[@hostileactual7655]

As a Texas fan... I miss this guy, he whipped our ass but it was a honorable win for him. Lincoln Reilly on the other hand is a snake and I hope he plays OU in a Bowl game so they can whip their ass. We may hate each other but we are like siblings, you don't fuck with the other... only we can do that.

[@bradlott9876]

USC would beat the living fuck outta ou

Oklahoma is rebuilding after a 3rd. place finish in the big 12 under Riley and his Q.B.

Sadly Lincoln didn't buy into OU FOOTBALL I dont think he thought of it more then a job He wont stay at USC BUD BARRY BOB Along comes Brent

[@DynamiteProd]

[@landonpratt1627]

That the last time you guys held someone to less than 40?

[@otispage4]

Please tell us how much you miss Lincoln. Without telling us how much you miss him. OU once again acts as if Lincoln is the only coach to leave OU. He didn't invent OU football. Sure sounds like he did.

[@letemknowmedia]

Well when it was his turn to build he did nothing lol Spencer Caleb …. What happened when it was Lincoln’s show?? Lol

[@pauldearmond5929]

USC OWNS Stoops. Garbage coach.

[@glennk5434]

Said like a true fan of CHEATING "U"! Only team that had a player who had to give back a Heisman! That sir is a Garbage school!

[@kirkbradford5765]

USC OWNS a VACATED NATTY & A HEISMAN TROPHY! WHERE IS THAT COACH???? I'll wait..........👀💯🤔

[@DMWolFGurL]

@@glennk5434 ​ @Glenn K LOL! Just a troll trying to make USC relevant out there by them lonesome selves, with a couple of other schools. They are satisfied with Oklahoma's leftovers then let them have him.

[@bradlott9876]

Brent Venables will hopefully kill OU football. Really believe OU is about to become the Nebraska of the SEC

[@slappinsteve3852]

BAHAHAHAHA

[@mikemash7616]

Couldn't say it any better myself. Can only laugh at that statement. My only question is whether Brad is an osu or texas fan.
