It's been expected the biggest question is who replaces him. One name thats come up is Mike Stoops.

Great career for Parker. Sad to see his health deteriorate over the past few years.

Wouldn't be surprised if Stoops took his place.

The other name that came up is Phil Parker if they promote from within. I guessing Norm's son but I don't know. (I checked they're not related at least not father and son)

Mike Stoops should be a candidate at three B1G schools. Ohio State, Iowa, or Nebraska.

I've also have seen stories of his going back to Oklahoma and recomendations that he be considered fo DC at A&M.

I could see OU and A&M will need a good defensive coach. You have to think Brent Venables didn't help himself this year.
