Bob Stoops and the Denver Broncos

[autigeremt 7,543]

The Denver Post has reported that the Denver Broncos have attempted to contact University of Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops in an attempt to fill their head coaching vacancy after the firing of Mike Shanahan earlier in the week.

Though it’s unknown at this time if the Broncos have actually talked to the 48-year-old Stoops directly, it does provide for interesting discussion if Stoops could ever coach in the NFL.

Thoughts?

Where have we seen this failed experiment before?

I thought conventional wisdom was that the NFL was done with college coaches.

Stoops has a nice gig at OU. I'd avoid the NFL.

Where have we seen this failed experiment before?

Stoops ex-boss, Steve Spurrier, for starters. More recently, Nick Saban & Bobby Petrino.

Bob Stoops has it made in Norman. I'd be shocked if he went anywhere, college or NFL.
