Bob Stoops and Baker Mayfield on their very first conversation | Conversations with Coach
Вставка

- Before even introducing himself to Bob Stoops, Baker Mayfield was making a name for himself at OU - in intramurals.
On this episode of “Conversations with Coach,” Mayfield joins his former Sooner coach to talk about their first meeting after his transfer as a walkon, Mayfield’s domination of OU intramural softball and flag football and the moment he joined the Sooner football program.
The rest, of course, is Sooner history. Mayfield went on to win the 2017 Heisman Trophy, become the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft, and - more relevant this week - win two out of three meetings with Texas.
Other topics Stoops and Mayfield cover:
*Mayfield’s experience growing up a Sooner fan in Austin.
*Going through four head coaches and four offensive coordinators in Cleveland.
*The LA story Mayfield wrote late last season.
*Why being Tampa Bay’s starting quarterback is like being back at OU again.

My niece, Dera, had the worst case of Spina Bifida in the history of Texas Children's Hospitals (Dallas). She survived. In 2017, at the age of 30, she had to have both legs amputated for curvature of the spine. OU quarterback Baker Mayfield not only signed a ball for Dera (a fanatic OU fan) but also made a personal effort to encourage a young woman who would never see her legs again. Baker Mayfield will always be number one in my book.
We lovin Baker down here in Tampa. That's the cold hard truth! He has a home here. A true winner and leader!!!! #BucsNation
My grandson went to one of Baker’s football camps in Austin. He is the real deal. His sincerity is endearing and his confidence is contagious. He was every bit as enthusiastic with a bunch of 11-12 year olds as he is during a game. He was great with all the kids. Very patient and engaged the whole session. My grandson set next to him at lunch and got to catch a TD pass from Baker and it’s something he will never forget. Thanks Bake!
I’m confident the family of Paul Scott Howell doesn’t feel the same about Baker Mayfield, because Baker Mayfield glorifies and honors the violent gang banging convicted felon who shot Paul Scott Howell in the head at point blank range in front of his then 7- and 9-year-old daughters and sister.
Baker Mayfield wore the convicted killer’s name, Julius Jones, on his helmet and shoes during games for an entire season.
But that’s not the only act thatCommitted by Julius Jones that Baker Mayfield honors, because Julius Jones didn’t stop at just executing Howell in front of his two little girls and sister after taking them to Braum’s to get ice cream. When Paul Scott HOWELL’s lifeless body fell to the ground, his two little girls and sister ran for their lives as Julius Jones shot at them, attempting to also murder them.
Yeah, Baker Mayfield is the “real deal” alright. Such a sincere and enduring person he is….that is, unless your father and brother was brutally executed right before your very eyes, and then you had to dodge as your father’s killer tried to gun you down, trying to shoot you in the back.
Pretty sure Baker Mayfield could care less about being enthusiastic with those two kids.
You say your grandson got to catch a pass from Baker Mayfield, which is something you say he will never forget.
I’m sure Paul Scott Howell’s two little girls and sister also have memories of Baker Mayfield that they too will never forget.
Oh well huh? Glad you grandson got to catch a pass from someone like him. I wonder if you’d feel the same if your son was murdered in front of you and your grandson, and Baker Mayfield honored your the killer?
Love seeing the Buccaneers fans here. The minute Baker signed with Tampa a bunch of people in Oklahoma became fans immediately. Seems like you all are figuring out why we all love him so much. There may be guys with a little more talent but nobody has ever played the game with more heart.
Truth! Boomer!
@@mrdetermin3d445 SOONER!!!!!
Try a lot more talent.. and nobody has ever played with more heart? Really? Have seen guys play on broken legs, torn ACLs, dislocated shoulders popped back in.. what has he done to trump that? How about the guys like Jim Brown who broke the color line? Ronnie Lott opting to have a finger cut off. YA Title who basically had his head split open.
Meanwhile now it's illegal to get grass on the QBs jersey lol what a ridiculous statement, that's frankly just disrespectful to the warriors of this game.
@@yepdontcarebudso you saw Y.A. tittle play ? Didn't Cleveland's current QB hide in the locker room because he didn't feel good ? Baker is tough and yeah he's not the most talented but he has a cannon for a arm and a never quit attitude but by all means keep the criticism and hate coming
@JustMe-gn6yf "hate"- google translate says: "realism"
It was an absurd take, get a hold of yourself.
Loved Baker in Cleveland! I’ve been a Browns fan my whole life, but also a Baker fan since he came to Cleveland. This guy played a whole season injured, which everyone seems to forget for some reason. His come back win with the Rams was unreal. And I love watching what Baker is doing in Tampa. Baker has so much heart and soul when plays the game. Love it! One word to describe Baker.. Amazing!!!
I love that in all these interviews where they talk about his Heisman and all his accolades in college, that Baker always mentions his intramural softball championship.
And gives props to the team mates he played with in the dorm
Baker has found a home in Tampa. Glad to have him leading this team!!
Love hearing these stories and incite from Coach Stoops and Bake. Two of the very best Sooners ever!
A couple of all time Sooner legends right here.
Coach you are undefeated again! Not one of these videos have been a loss. Every video is awesome and this one was my favorite
I'm still convinced as a kid Baker and myself played catch before the 2005 TCU game in the parking lot of the old dorms. Me and my brother and dad were playing and this kid about a year younger than and his dad who looked alot like Baker's dad came by his kid asked if he could join and we ran routes back and forth to each other for like 30 minutes he also said he was from Austin which shocked me as a kid cuz I figured everyone in Austin would be a Texas fan. Kid was wearing an old 22 Quentin Griffin jersey 😂 I'll go to my grave swearing that was a young Baker 😂
that's fucking awesome I hope he sees this
I'm jealous...I'd love to meet Baker and play some golf shoot the shit
I believe you ❤
That’s pretty cool. Know what else is cool…I was in a bathroom stall in a bar in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and I swear Matthew McConaughey was in the stall next to me. It was all quiet and weird cuz I didn’t wanna make a loud fart sound during my initial push, and I hear the words…”don’t be shy” followed by a McConaughey giggle. He has a very distinct voice, and I swear it was him. Anybody else saying that would be weird as hell, but from Matt…it felt like he was motivating me to give my best effort while crapping, and any noises my butthole made would not offend him. It made me comfortable. I didn’t even think about it being him real time, but as soon as he left…it hit me. Then I finished pooping. I’d love to reach out to him and ask him if it was him, but it was probably more memorable to me than him. If it wasn’t him…well, I’d probably get arrested. True story.
That's a touching memory, but childhood memories can often be fabricated. Maybe the kid just really looked like Baker.
That was a great video and it was very nice to hear from Baker. Always loved his enthusiasm and his never quit attitude. We got many great years in Norman out of Coach Stoops also. All of the luck in the world to both of you.
"I'm Baker Mayfield" You sure as hell are aren't you" lol.. love this! Great interview!
Great interview. Baker is a great star ⭐️
Bob is such a great guy. Enjoyed this chat with Baker. Good luck in TB Baker!!
good luck, stay healthy Baker go Bucks
The first I heard was baker was running the scout team and lighting it up in a major way. We already had a starting qb but I heard Dean Blevins say the starter "will have trouble holding him off in the Spring." Meaning Baker would take the job from the starter. Then I got online and watched footage from Tech. I really was amazed that Tech let him get away and I instantly became a believer. And I still am. I saw every home game he played at OU in person. I don't need some media yahoo tell me how good he is. I KNOW how good he is.
Awesome , thanks Bob n Baker
Great to hear Baker great podcast.
Easily my favorite Oklahoma player and college football player story of all time .. and how he was embraced by not only the Oklahoma family but by the qb he’d be teaming with in Trevor Knight .. Again, a testament to the program Oklahoma has .. Second. To. No. One.
Excellent .
OMG so much fun watching this podcast
So amazing how the oklahoma sooners have touched so many lives ...me included i fell in love with ou one saturday when i was around 10 my dad took me to them hosting iowa state...it was a comback win at the end i cant remember the yr but 90s somewhere we and they werent good lol after looking now it was probably 98
Great interview
Good stuff coach!
Baker if the man!!!!
Baker returns to the Red River Shootout: Confirmed!
great interview! lets go bucs!
So Baker will be at RRR…guest prognosticator on Gameday I bet.
Baker Ya Maker🔥
Glad to see Baker talking to Coach Bob… instead of TBOW who he posed with in LA for a photo
Thanks for staying around OU football BobFather, this is great content you damn Sellouts. 😂
My college teammates and I, at Abilene Christian University, won 4 Intramural sports in a row, in Fall 1982, we got banned from playing too!
Boomer Sooner! I only follow my sooners in the nfl until they stop kneeling! Love Baker!
I'm with you chicken
So cool
Bake drips confidence.
Let's go bake
Boomer ❤
I HATE texas!!
I'm so happy Baker is in a great place now in Tampa!
Finally !!! Seems the way the NFL drafts players is borderline criminal !! The best players go to the sorriest teams !! Teams even lose intently to get the highest picks ?? I often wonder How many generational players have got hurt playing for shitty teams and never lived up to their potential !! Listen teams in the NFL suck for a reason !! Bad coaching, Poor development of players and Rediculous owners that made millions doing one thing unrelated to football, Yet make final decisions on players !!
Soooner Nation will always love and appreciate you Baker. We are all Tampa fans now as well.
Don't know who is putting all this media with Bob together, but it's a hit out of the park with the interview with all the OU coaches and the road to Arlington goes through Norman. Absolutely superb gentlemen! I sure would like to know exactly what Baker thinks about Riley and his antics in private.
Shouldn't pry.. Baker still has love and appreciation for Riley, whether we like him or not.
I assume he was as shocked as the rest of us, but they're still close and Stoops would never put Baker in a very awkward position by asking him about it. Baker's still OU born and bred!!
The pride beaming off Coach's face says it all. Love me some Bob and Bake!
Baker was my Mom's favorite Sooner of all time. She died two years ago at age 77, but followed his career after OU passionately, even joining Cleveland Browns message boards to argue with the online haters. She'd be thrilled with how Tampa Bay is doing, even though she knows I'm a Saints fan. What Bob and Bake put together was really, really special.
Man, that is awesome! Such a neat little thing to remember about your mom and carry around with you. I think we all love Baker. I’m sure you do.
Did not realize Coach Stoops had a VLOG. I am definitely subscribing and looking forward to seeing Coach's future guests. Great to see Baker on my first time seeing Conversations with Coach. Boomer!
Baker! Always!!!!! Loved !!!!! Boomer Sooner!
So has he had seven OC's and seven HC's in six years total? That coupled with the shoulder injury, it's not hard to see why his career has been so up and down early on.
How he this podcast not blown up yet? Great content so far.
Baker is the kinda dude I could see coming back to OU to be a QB coach and OC after he is done achieving his goals. Like Demarco Murray. Especially after the buzz Prime has created. No I'm not comparing Baker to Prime
I see Baker doing color in the broadcast booth. He is so articulate, insightful, and funny. Smash hit ala Tony Romo!
@@Mr5thWaveBaker would be better taking the Pat McAfee route.
Love both of you guys as much as -- and in a couple of instances, more than -- my own family. Boomer Sooner!!!
Baker did what I dreamed of for 20 years walking on at ou
What an interview! Baker and Coach!
Great show! Two legends
boomer sooner cant wait to see baker at the game great show really enjoyed it
I love Baker, not to happy he beat my Saints this past weekend but I want to best for him and hope does well. Just not against my Saints. lol
Man I remember the game where Mark caught the pass late to seal the game for OU. I brought my fiance, son, mom, and dad to the Texas state fair. It was my 30th birthday too. I hoped I could find some tickets cheap enough to go in the stadium. But I just couldn't afford it. So we watched the game in a little wine garden at the fair just outside the stadium. And it was HOT that day.
Ah, I love this! Boomer Sooner #☝️
Stoops is such a class guy that has really embraced the Sooner traditions. Thanks sir for all you do for OU
I don’t want to be dramatic, but I would die for baker mayfield
Happy that OU has Venables. He is the real deal! All the best from a Clemson alum.
I would watch weekly show with these two
Baker glad to see you in a happy place in your career. Go Bucs!!!!! After your NFL& Super Bowl run…….
We want the BAKER’s DOZEN back at Sooner Nation. #BakerMayfield OU OC 2026!!! In my opinion here is the reason why:
A BAKER’s DOZEN IS:
1. A winner
2. High energy
3. A leader
4. Offensive Minded
5.Has NFL Experience
6. He is our man (Heisman winner)
7. A great motivator
8. Baker has charisma
9. He has “Swag”
10. Baker got guts
11. *Baker loves Oklahoma ❤
12. Baker is diehard Boomer Sooner.
The “Baker’s Dozen”. OU OC 2026
I hope youre wrong because if he is already retired from the NFL by 2026 that would mean something went seriously wrong for him to retire that soon. I hope he has a long successful NFL career and accomplishes everything he wants to and then he can come home and coach at Oklahoma in like 2033-2035
Man! Perfectly said!!!!
@@JessiePope-uu4wz Fair enough. Sooner Nation loves Baker. We will wait. 😄😄
Love me some "Shake and Bake"! "Baker Baker, Touchdown Maker".......Bake I watch replays often of our team. Everyone believed and knew you would get it done and get it "rolling"; like the Texas Game, Tennessee game (2nd half) and Georgia play off game, just beyond belief I mean DD! Cee Dee! and Baby Shep! ,on top of that Mark Andrews!......I just don't think there was a better offense ever.....Man! if BV had been here!
Boomer! Baby!....Beat Texas! (A really, really good team)
Clicked on this so fast. Can't wait to watch. Only wished it was longer.
Baker is one of best people on and off the field!
I want stooops back on our sidelinesss soooo baaad😫😫
Deutschland ist Team Baker 🇩🇪🇩🇪👍
While working at pub w in Norman. I got to have many conversations with Mike Jones because of my uncle Hal smith. I remember telling Mike how I thought baker would change the program for the better. Mike would just smile and tell me baker was a great kid! Not once did he tell me that he knew baker his whole life. It wasn’t til 2017 that I saw the picture of baker as a kid with Mike Jones on the field and I put two and two together. Always thought that was pretty cool!
what an awesome morning surprise to find this video
Great content as always!
Just subscribed Bob!
That son of yours makes me even prouder to be a Sooner fan!
Baker will always be oklahomas sweetheart lol the things he did in an ou jersey from the passes he made, to the scrambles he did, to the crotch grab will never be forgotten! Much love to baker
BOOMER! BEAT TEXASS!
Great piece! Thanks! I subscribed!
I'm a buccaneer fan and I am so excited to have Baker Mayfield as our quarterback and the way it looks. He's going to be with the buccaneers for a long time.
God willing. I'd love to see him find a good home with great people around him. I'm a Bucs fan now!😊
Man I’ve wanted Baker to have a fair shot at the NFL since he got drafted. I’m so happy the bucs gave that man a chance. All I’m saying is OU gave him a chance and he balled tf out to prove that he deserved the chance. I’d bet money that he plays his mf heart out in Tampa for the same reason. Much love my friend.
Yes! Remember the Selmon Bros at OU?
Their legacy is very much at Tampa Bay as well!
I don’t miss a buccaneer game … boomer
Mayfield is a winner
Love that guy!
I have to tell this story. Doing executive security for Fox Noon, Nebraska. Coach Stoops was my assignment. I was waiting for you to pull under the stadium. You pull up and park in Riley spot. I said Coach you parked in his spot and I said you are in his spot. This got me, you said I’m the Coach and I said ok let’s go ! A lot of respect…
I'm Sooner bred & Sooner born & when I die I'll be Sooner dead. you go Baker Oklahoma loves you.
So special talk. Thanks Coach and thanks Baker!!!!
Been a sooner fan all my life , since the early 70's ...hard to favor anyone over Baker...❤️
