Word is that Gundy was a bit of a slime-ball. Friend of mine was a waitress while at school years ago and she said that he was notorious for hitting on the waitresses.
Kind of lame that something like this rose through the I&D office at OU the way it did. More telling than the school running with it though, is when the head coach doesn’t really go to bat for you.
Gundy has been there a long time. My guess is that Venables wants to instill a more professional culture and this guy wasn’t on with the program.
