Kristen Gundy: “That’s right, he’s 47 and we were running out of ideas. The OSU band has always been special to us and my boys love the drum line. Wayne called me and brought up the idea and I thought it was an awesome idea and something he will always remember versus another shirt.” (Scout)
My man, James Washington. Here’s Gundy on him: “I was just talking to one of our coaches today — the most pleasant thing about him is he plays hard and never says a word.” (Tulsa World)
