Barry Switzer to host a fundraiser for Gov. Rick Perry

Barry Switzer will host a fundraiser for Gov. Rick Perry the weekend of Nov. 14 at Switzer's home in Norman.

That same weekend, the Sooners are hosting Texas A&M's football team.

Presumably the coach and the governor, a former Aggie yell leader, will take different sides in that one.


Football "is an area where they can have a disagreement," Perry spokesman Mark Miner said. Miner said Perry's fellow Aggies shouldn't be alarmed.

"Coach Switzer is a supporter of the governor," he said. "Nobody can question the governor's loyalty to the Aggies."
