Sporting News: Stoops receives $3 Million bonus from Oklahoma

http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=502565

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops earned $3 million when the calendar flipped.

A clause in Stoops' contract -- approved in 2005 by the university's board of regents -- provided for the 48-year-old coach to receive a so-called "stay bonus" of $3 million after completing 10 seasons as the Sooners' coach.

Stoops was scheduled to receive the bonus if he remained at Oklahoma through 2008, which ended Wednesday. He was hired as the Sooners' coach in December 1998, replacing John Blake.
