Taking a look at the top 2 coaches in the Big 12 conference. Mack Brown of Texas and Bob Stoops at Oklahoma.
Mack Brown
Brown began his career at Appalachian State (1 yr) and then Tulane (3 yrs) as few may remember. Brown had mild success with both schools before taking over at North Carolina. After ten years with the Tar Heels, he moved to Texas in 1998. With the Long Horns, he was known as "not being able to win the big one" until Vince Young led the Horns to the 2005 national championship against USC, thus quieting many of his critics. Brown enters the 2012 season with a 141-39 record at Texas and 227-113-1 (66.7%) overall record.
Bob Stoops
Stoops will be entering his 14th season as head coach of the Oklahoma Sooners, a program he has turned into a national Top-10 team, In just his second season, Stoops led Oklahoma to a perfect 13-0 season and the national championship and he won AP Coach of the Year Award. Coming into the 2012 season, Stoops has a 139-34 (80.3%) record.
