Yep, a Texas Longhorn.
For about 12 hours, it was happening. A report surfaced Thursday night that Steve Sarkisian, the new Texas coach, was hiring Mike Stoops to be the Longhorns’ linebacker coach. But before mid-morning Friday, a new report was out saying Sark wasn’t hiring Stoops and was targeting someone else.
Well, it was fun while it lasted.
Or weird.
Or crazy.
Or bizarre.
Yes, bizarre. That’s it. Bizarre. The thought of a Stoops, any Stoops, being part of Texas football is just flat out bizarre.
