An Oklahoma State senator is wanting to give Lincoln Riley an "appropriate goodbye" in a recently proposed bill, which would name just three inches of a desolate road the “Lincoln Riley Highway."
According to a release from the Oklahoma State Senate Communications office, it is “the last three inches one sees before leaving [Oklahoma] and heading west." The location will be in the westbound lane of State Highway 325 in the panhandle.
"I felt the state of Oklahoma needed an appropriate goodbye to this former head coach whose sudden departure left many in shock, including a team of young, dedicated college players," Sen.
