Oklahoma Football Notes and Articles

Stoops, Wilson and Long speaks with the media: Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops, Sooner offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson and former OU assistant and new San Diego State head coach Chuck Long spoke with members of the news media on Sunday. Here is a transcript of those interviews. Long was named SDSU's coach on Saturday, and later that evening, Stoops promoted Wilson to offensive coordinator at OU.

Stoops On Chuck Long's involvement at the bowl game: "I am going to talk to Chuck and see what is possible. He won't be involved in the game plan, but will know it and will be there to help. If he's able to continue, that would be a positive. We would welcome that."

Wilson On possible changes: "The things we have been doing are things that I am about. We started to evolve at the end of the year and we want to build on that. I don't see radical changes, but again, our players will determine some of that. My ego is not big enough that we need to change things. We need to do what’s best for our program."

Wilson On other members of the offensive staff: "Cale (Gundy), Darrell (Wyatt) and Kevin (Sumlin) will have a huge part in this. We don't do this in individual offices. There are a lot of ideas thrown out."
