from the Chicago Sun-Times:

Bob Stoops finally put an end to speculation he could be the next Notre Dame coach.

Unlike earlier statements by Stoops, there was no ambiguity in his statement released Saturday by Oklahoma.

"I will not be the next coach at Notre Dame,'' Stoops said in the statement. "I will continue to be the coach at Oklahoma. I appreciate the history and tradition of Notre Dame. I also appreciate the history and tradition of Oklahoma, and I have been part of building that tradition here.

"I work for a wonderful president [David Boren] and athletic director [Joe Castiglione] who have created an incredible work environment at OU. There haven't been any plans for a meeting or negotiations with Notre Dame, and there will not be. Any reporting to that fact is completely erroneous."
