OK. This sucks. But, you know what...this kid has had problems since he got here on and off the field. He has never lived up to the hype that preceded him. He's cocky to a fault and has a sense of entitlement like most so-called "scholar-athletes." He gets what he deserves. Kudos to Bob Stoops for doing the right thing.

Ok, enlighten me on what rules they actually violated. It reads to me as if they worked for a private business and they were paid more then the time they actually worked. Why is that bad? What am I missing? I have to confess I am not a big football fan so really am lost here about this rule:).

More proof that Division One schools should just convert their "scholar-athletes" to minor leagues and be done with it.

Take it from someone who knows. OU needs to get rid of that booster too - hard and quick.

As someone who went to the University of Texas, I salute Bob Stoops for doing the right thing. Bomar really has given Stoops headaches over the last couple of years.

This Longhorn fan is deeply saddened. Stoops did the right thing.
BTW: Is Thompson going to get his job back?

College Football Ping.
Freepmail me to be added to this list.
Different source so I will ping this too. This effectively knocks Oklahoma out of the National title race. They will still be very competitive in the Big XII South, but they won't be favored against Texas.
