If the opponents ball goes in first, it then becomes opponents turn. If the players ball goes in first, he continues with his turn.

This may sound like a cheap answer, but it depends on what set of rules you are playing. In APA League, BCA League, common tournament rules, etc., the only stipulations are that you contacted the 8-ball first, made the 8-ball in the pocket you called, and didn't scratch or jump the cue ball off the table. It doesn't matter if the 8-ball touched an opponent's ball, an opponent's ball went in, none of that stuff. House rules for different locations regularly vary though. At some pool halls they may play that the 8-ball can't hit an opponent's ball.

Johnny got it right. As long as you make a legal hit and pocket the ball that you called, it doesn't matter if you pocket your opponent's ball, either before or after yours. You keep shooting. M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.
P.S. Just a little bit of 8-ball strategy to add. A lot of people are mistaken in believing that pocketing your opponent's ball is helping them out. All that does in help clear the path for the shooter to pocket more of their own balls. Having balls on the table is usually a good thing when your opponent is shooting.

Depends on the rules where you are playing. We always played that if you shoot and you get your ball in the hole and an opponents you get another turn just as if you only hit your ball in. The opponent is just lucky you hit his in...

He goes again and the shot from him that got the other guys ball in helps him too.

As long as you are playing Ball in Hand rules or call your pocket rules its still your shot. Some bar bums or old guys might try to tell you thats not how they used to play back in the day. Just kindly tell them its not back in the day anymore and to check out a rule book.
