Oklahoma fans aren't hiding their anger over Lincoln Riley's departure.

Banners with the word "traitor" appeared across Oklahoma's campus after news broke Sunday that Riley is leaving the Sooners to become head coach at USC.

One student who spoke to Jasmine Anderson of Fox 25 described the atmosphere on campus as "pretty bad."

Riley spent the past five seasons at Oklahoma, leading the Sooners to a 55-10 record and four straight Big 12 titles.
