Stoops is done. Put a fork in him.

Most likely but we will see.
If he manages to make a bowl (6-6), he stays i imagine

Did we hire Stoops from you guys for a couple hours a year ago, and you guys got mad? I definitely remember that, what changed. Didn’t you guys beat Ole Miss?

Are you sure about that? Drinkwitz would have gone elsewhere if other top football programs had called him that year Missouri AD took a chance on him with only 1 year HC experience at a lower conference.

I don’t see it. Based on what I can find we’d owe him 75% of his remaining contract which would be $37.5 million + $8.39 million buying out his assistants (based on the info I can find). With Marrow leaving that does get us off the hook for his $1.3 million salary but we still have hire someone for the position so it’s still gonna cost something. And don’t forget, Stoops has in his contract that we have to pay him the full amount within 60 days of the notice to terminate. If it were spread out in installments it would be much easier to do but at the end of the day you are gonna have to pay at least $45+ million and you have to pay most of that within 2 months of firing. It’s just not gonna happen.

Thats a bold move.
Tax filing the following year would be a huge pain though

Our AD needs to go, he's way past the expiration date. Unless Stoops leaves on his own he'll lose a lot of the goodwill he's earned.
Morrow going to UofL should have put a fleet of moving trucks in his drive.

If Commonwealth is a ghost town Mitch may not have a choice

There is 0.0000000001% chance Stoops survives another year unless he somehow with 8-10 games.

We've got the 3 cupcakes and randomly 1 SEC win somewhere.

Just for the posting potential, I hope your random SEC win is 1a. Texas. 1b. Auburn.
Either of those would make me happy.

Either one would be funny.
Ole Miss last year was about the only bright spot because of how hilarious it was
I fully expect to lose to both though.

Kentucky fans are going to be severely disappointed when he chooses a better job over Kentucky.

And no other program wants him now. Why is that?
