The football coach makes millions and keeps getting raises. Everyone else gets cut after cut. Eventually the school will be little more than its football team.

The OU football team was once coached by a Pulitzer-Prize-winning English professor. Not lately, though.

“Taught British literature, organized the department of English, coached the football team, played on the baseball team, edited the campus newspaper, and tried to beautify the campus.” Wow.

clearly a liberal elite parasite gotta purge those outside agitators:
“He published little and in 1908 he was fired due to pressures from religious groups who wanted all “immoral faculty” fired”
now that sounds like OU.

They need to remember the apocryphal quote often attributed to Bud Wilkinson (former OU coach back in the 50s) about OU’s academics: “We need to build a university our football team can be proud of.” It was actually the OU president, George Cross, who said it.

tp: It has taken its mythic place next to Gordon Gee’s “I’m just hoping that the coach doesn’t dismiss me.”
