Based upon what I've seen, Stoops said health wasn't the issue.

If I had to guess, maybe potential NCAA violations, though I don't recall Oklahoma having any run ins with the NCAA during his 18 years there. I may be wrong, and even if I am right, it doesn't mean NCAA violations aren't looming, and were not a factor in his sudden departure.

There was a bit of speculation on ESPN that he is angling for the Bears' job should Fox falter there.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
