Oklahoma Sooners legend Bob Stoops has some of the best praise you will hear for former GM Curtis Lofton

We all know about the Oklahoma Sooners and their staff members who have been leaving left and right, whether it be defensive coordinator Zac Alley or assistant general manager Chuck Lillie. They both went to West Virginia and now the general manager, Curtis Lofton, is also leaving, but for good reason.

This is something that has been known for a while, but was only just announced on Thursday -- Lofton is leaving the college football world to get into ministry. You can say what you want about whatever it is that you believe, but you can't say that Lofton isn't perfect for that job.

He loves helping people, and that's exactly what he will be able to do. And, he has all of the support in the world.

Bob Stoops gives Curtis Lofton words of encouragement

It's not every day you have a human being like Lofton in the program. Yes, he is leaving and yes that now creates a new hole, one that they will either address or won't address, and not every program has a GM position. But, what he is doing, is truly special, and even legend Bob Stoops knows that.
