Primed for a title run, Stoops makes sure team's success rubs off on rest of Oklahoma's programs

This is an article about OU's resurgence in college athletics, referring primarily to football, but also mentions both basketball teams and coaches. It's in the LA Times, which is a register site. Someone copied/pasted the article on the OUinsider board, which I'll link to for those interested who don't want to register.

Interesting points about the relationship between coaches of different sports. It does certainly seem like OU has a system that works. I've seen Coach Sampson at football games, and Coach Stoops at OU WBB games. Stoops meets recruits of other sports.
My favorite quote:
Castiglione preached patience and told his coaches not to be satisfied with a short-term fix. Sampson and Coale have since been rewarded with identical lavish practice facilities built adjacent the Lloyd Noble Center.
What more could Coale want?
"I could use a post player," she said.
It's a good read for OU fans and sports fans in general.
