The 56-year-old Sooner head coach has a record of 190-48 in his 18 seasons in Norman, 33 more wins than Barry Switzer, the second winningest head coach in OU’s storied football history. Stoops won a national championship in 2000, his second season at Oklahoma, and led his team to 10 Big 12 championships, seven more than the next closest conference team.
Stoops won more games at Oklahoma in his 18 seasons than any other Division I college coach. That included a winning record against the Sooners two biggest rivals. He was 11-7 against Texas and 14-4 in games with in-state Bedlam rival Oklahoma State.
