Since OU started playing football, well before statehood, no head football coach has ever left OU for another school. Fairbanks went to New England before going to
Simply untrue. Jim Tatum left for Maryland.

OK. You are right. Forgot Jim's one year as coach
What we are hearing now, would be the same reason he did not want to go to LSU. Supposedly the OU President and OU AD wanted the move to the SEC, and LR did not.
LR had a meeting with demands for him to stay and it was countered with demands for him to do certian things, if OU met his demands. We were hearing "infrastructure" was an impass last week.
LR likes to be every player and player's family to be best friends. Making tough decisions have always been hard on him. He is brilliant, with a near photographic memory. But he is soft. Name one big time coach he has outcoached in a game, as a head coach the last three years.
