Ace Journeyman has left Utah to take the head coaching position at Oklahoma. The Sooners have had back-to-back 7 win seasons and that's just not good enough for the folks in Norman. Everyone's hoping that Journeyman has what it takes to lead Oklahoma back to the promised land, even though the schedule includes 3 preseason top-10 teams. While people in Salt Lake City are upset at losing the coach that took them to the PAC-10 and the Rose Bowl, the split was reportedly amicable. Journeyman entertained offers from several major schools, including Florida and Clemson, but chose OU for the oppurtunity to play against top level competition. The coach is looking ahead to the 2014 season and being involved with an established program that can recruit well and hang with the big-boys of college football. If he can recreate his model for success here, Ace Journeyman could win a BCS title inside of the three year contract he signed.
