Bud Wilkinson, University of Oklahoma football coach, walks back out into a windy, cool day Saturday after telling university regents he is resigning as coach. He will remain as OU Athletic Director, but said he will resign that job also if and when he decides to enter politics. Wilkinson's name has been linked recently with the U.S. Senate race, and the coach confirmed Saturday he is considering the race. A registered Democratic, Wilkinson is reported thinking of running as a Republican.
