Stoops I believe made his bones as the D-Coordinator for those great Steve Spurrier Gator teams. So if the rumors are true and went that direction the offense would be the question mark.
His OU teams from what I recall were known for their offensive prowess. The defense tended to be the achilles heel.
His defenses were very good 15 yrs ago. Then he got soft and didn't give a shit anymore. His teams were unprepared for big games. He may have won 5 BCS games but 2 of those were against a 4 loss Auburn team and a 4 loss UConn team. His 7 BCS losses were by an average of 17 pts. His opponents averaged 38 pts in those games.
Bob Stoops would be an unmitigated disaster as a coach. His teams are soft and he could never win the big one. He peaked 10 years ago.
He's still at least a top 15 coach, possibly a top 5 coach. It would be silly not to go out and get him.
His offensive style will fit Huard perfectly. The problem is he didn't give a shit about defense his last 5 or so years at OU. If he solves the defense I will like the move.

That's carried over. They're still winning. There are a few guys who might be better but not many. I'll take 10-2 over this shit fest.
Going back to 2006 til he resigned in 2016, he produced 3 defensive players that were taken in the the first 2 rds of the NFL Draft. Yikes. Offensively a much different story. '08 - Curtis Lofton - 1st '10 - Gerald McCoy - 1st '15 - Jordan Philips - 2nd
Will he really leave the Dallas Cowboys Renegades for Washington?
If Washington can pull this off it would be very impressive. I wouldn’t do the doogie boogie quite yet.
At 61 he’s four years older than Petersen, dad died of a heart attack while coaching in a game, kids go to Oklahoma - where his wife is a pyramid scheme gilf.
How much sway do the women’s and/or gender studies chairs have at UW? Because with Joe Mixon, DGB, Dede Westbrook, Frank Shannon, and I’m sure others, he’s got a black eye on his resume.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a win at (almost) all costs fan. As long as he’s not a pedocanibal I’d quook for him, he’s adept at losing national championship games so he’d fit in great at U of O. I don’t see it happening. I bet he recommended Grinch or the bad brother, and that’s the extent of his interest in the UW job.
It’s too bad that UW is against coaches hitting players, because the best Stoops assistant is available.
