(AP) — As Bob Stoops prepares to lead Oklahoma onto the practice field this spring, the new faces in prominent roles are plentiful.

(AP) — After 14 seasons at Oklahoma, Bob Stoops understands the all-or-nothing culture that surrounds his Sooners. Anything less than a national championship equates to a disappointing season in the eyes of many. To some degree, that includes Stoops. "I hate it," he said Friday when asked about being out of the national title race again. "We...
