Bob Stoops & Hal Mumme together with the Air Raid in the XFL? Sounds like fun.

Hal Mumme had been in the football business awhile, even been the offensive coordinator at Texas-El Paso for four years, when he became head coach at Copperas Cove High School in 1986.

The Texas school’s first scrimmage didn’t go that well. Mumme’s offense, with the linemen split wide, gave up seven sacks.

The Copperas Cove principal was an old coach. He went to Mumme’s office and asked Mumme to draw up his primary formation. The old coach didn’t like what he saw.

“You know,” he told Mumme, “we’re going to fire you faster than anyone we’ve ever had.”
