Coaches are getting fired. New ones will be hired over the next three weeks. Mark Stoops’ name is not leaving the conversation anytime soon.
Two openings included Mark Stoops on their initial list of candidates, Nebraska and Auburn. After kicking the tires with Jimmy Sexton, Stoops might cost more than the folks in Lincoln are willing to pay.
