Former OU wrestling coach Stan Abel suing Barry Switzer

NORMAN — Former Oklahoma football coach Barry Switzer is being sued by former OU wrestling coach Stan Abel for $90,000 and damages over a failed business deal.


According to court documents, Switzer and Abel — along with former Oklahoma wrestler Mozaffar Jahanguiri — were investors in The Lighthouse Restaurant on Lake Hefner’s East Wharf, which failed to become profitable enough for the group and was eventually closed.

The lawsuit claims that Abel and Jahanguiri were promised their money back "on numerous occasions” over the years, but Switzer never paid up.

Switzer was in Iraq on Friday coaching a football game involving U.S. troops. He was unavailable for comment on the lawsuit.
