Former Oklahoma defensive coordinator Mike Stoops will be paid monthly installments of $24,917 until Jan. 31, 2020, according to his contract obtained by The Oklahoman. The buyout number is equal to his annual base salary plus $2,000 per month for health care and other expenses.

Stoops was fired without cause Monday. He signed a new contract on Feb. 1 that would’ve carried him through the 2019 season.

Stoops had a base annual salary of $275,000, but it was only a slice of his compensation. His total annual salary was $950,000 — a number that combines base salary, an annual stay benefit, personal services and appearances on behalf of the university.

Stoops had built-in incentives for OU participating in and winning the Big 12 Championship along with postseason bowl and college football playoff incentives.
