"I'm very pleased that Coach Stoops is remaining at the University of Oklahoma. Bob and Carol Stoops represent the very best values of the University of Oklahoma. They are deeply appreciated as members of our University family. Coach Stoops' decision to remain at the University of Oklahoma is a signal of continuity and stability in one of the nation's greatest football programs." David L. Boren President, University of Oklahoma

"We're obviously delighted that Bob Stoops is our head football coach. I think Coach Stoops fully understands what is going on here and he truly appreciates what's happening and the support he's been given. (He appreciates) the way that the fans around this state, around this country, if not the world, have embraced him, his staff and our entire football program. When you talk to him, that comes through and I feel that and sense that. Bob and his family are special people. They mean a lot to us and what we're building at OU."
