He has been with the Sooners football program for 18 years. He announced, on Wednesday, that he is retiring from his position as head coach. "After 18 years at the University of Oklahoma, I've decided to step down as the head football coach. I understand there has been some speculation about my health. My health was not the deciding factor in this decision and I've had no incidents that would prevent me from coaching," Stoops said in a school release. Bob Stops took over the University of Oklahoma Sooners football program in 1999. He has been a staple since. In his first season as head coach, he guided the Sooners to seven wins and their first bowl game since 1994. He has compiled a career record of 190 wins against 48 losses. He was an even nine wins and nine losses in bowl games. 1 / 3 Stoops guided the Sooners to his only National Championship in 2000. It came with a 13-2 victory over the Florida State Seminoles in the Orange Bowl. This would also be the only time that the Sooners would go undefeated. Stoops Oklahoma teams have finished ranked in Top 10 nine times. Six of those times, they finished in the top five.

He steps away from the game with astounding accomplishments. 1 - National Championship 10 – Big 12 Championships 2 – Walter Camp Coach of the Year Awards (2000, 2003) 1 – Paul “Bear” Bryant Award (2000) 1 – Home Depot Coach of the Year Award (2000) 1 – AP Coach of the Year Award (2000) 6 – Big 12 Coach of the Year Awards (2000, 2003, 2006, 2008, 2015-2016) 1 – Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year Award (2003) 1 – Disney’s Wide World of Sports Spirit Award (2014) He is also the only head coach in the modern BCS era to win the Rose, Orange, Sugar and Fiesta Bowls. Bob Stoops hands the reigns over to Offensive Coordinator Lincoln Riley. Riley has been with the program for 3-years and recently signed a 3-year contract extension in May. He takes over a program filled with rich tradition and excellence. Added Riley: "I'm sincerely honored to be given this opportunity to be the head football coach at the University of Oklahoma. I want to thank Coach Stoops for bringing me here two years ago and making me part of the Sooner family. He is one of the greatest coaches in the history of the game, at any level. I am absolutely thankful for our friendship and for the mentorship, he has provided. Coaching at Oklahoma is a dream come true for me and my family." 2 / 3 3 / 3 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

INTRODUCTION Collegiate athletics has become big business in America, generating billions of dollars each year. Division I-A' football and men's basketball are among the most popular sports in America, and they are the revenue generators in collegiate athletics. Central Broadcasting Systems (CBS) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) are currently under an eleven-year, $6 billion contract for the television broadcast rights for the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.2 Fox is paying $330 million for the right to broadcast the Fiesta, Sugar, and Orange Bowls from 2007-2010 and the right to broadcast the college football national championship games from 2007-2009. 3 With so much money spent on collegiate football and men's basketball, it appears that successful programs in these sports offer universities an opportunity to generate significant revenue.

82Nd Annual Convention of the AFCA
82nd annual convention of the AFCA. JANUARY 9-12, 2005 * LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY President's Message It was an ordinary Friday night high school football game in Helena, Arkansas, in 1959. After eating our pre-game staples of roast beef, green beans and dry toast, we journeyed to the stadium for pre- game. As rain began to fall, a coach instructed us to get in a ditch to get wet so we would forget about the elements. By kickoff, the wind had increased to 20 miles per hour while the temperature dropped over 30 degrees. Sheets of ice were forming on our faces. Our head coach took the team to the locker room and gave us instructions for the game as we stood in the hot showers until it was time to go on the field. Trailing 6-0 at halftime, the officials tried to get both teams to cancel the game. Our coach said, "Men, they want us to cancel. If we do, the score will stand 6-0 in favor of Jonesboro." There was a silence broken by his words, "I know you don't want to get beat 6-0." Well, we finished the game and the final score was 13-0 in favor of Jonesboro. Forty-five years later, it is still the coldest game I have ever been in. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] No one likes to lose, but for every victory, there is a loss. As coaches, we must use every situation to teach about life and how champions handle both the good and the bad. I am blessed to work with coaches who care about each and every player.
