The Sooners, he held various assistant coaching roles for the University of Florida, the University of Iowa, Kansas State University, and Kent State University.
While coaching the University of Oklahoma college team, he led them to a record of 191-48. Coached by Stoops,

No Excuses: The Making of a Head Coach is a work that Stoops published in 2019. In this work, he is very candid and opens up on how he developed and became one of the best coaches in the sport, even as the game evolved.
He chronicles his unlikely emergence at the University of Iowa as one of the best defensive linebackers and then his apprenticeships under greats such as Steve Spurrier, Bill Snyder, and Hayden Fry.
He tells of how the game he came to love as a boy turned into a billion-dollar business that is often compromised by overzealous alumni and boosters, aggressive agents, recruiting wars, and the rise of the head coach as CEO rather than teacher and mentor.
