As careers in college football coaching go, Cale Gundy has been extremely lucky. He works in a cutthroat profession in which nomads are the norm, but he stayed on staff at his alma mater for 23 years. He collected some hefty paychecks and received deserved credit for his contributions to the Oklahoma Sooners’ success since he became an assistant there in 1999.
It would be nice to think Gundy decided to resign from his position as receivers coach on Sunday as a way to show contrition and take accountability for bad judgment in saying a racial slur during a team meeting.
