OSU Bullets

• The 15th-best unsigned player in the 2020 basketball recruiting class is headed to Stillwater later this month.

On back-to-back nights in early February, (Donovan) Williams dropped 44 and 50 points.

That being said, Williams is a pure scorer who would benefit from playing alongside the likes of Cade Cunningham and Isaac Likekele in Stillwater with their ability to get others involved. [PFB]

Is that what OSU’s missing? Some players just won’t translate to this level (or basketball in the US in some cases) but I’m for throwing schollys at the Williams’ and the Rondel Walkers of the world, absolutely.

• The Dallas Cowboys sound to be all-in on making Blake Jarwin their next starting tight end. At most, he’ll split some reps with a 38-year-old Jason Witten.

A source says Cowboys plan on placing a second-round tender on TE Blake Jarwin, projected at $3.2 million based on figures from @Jason_OTC If Jason Witten doesn't return, Jarwin is your starting TE in 2020.

• Based off of historical preferences for the NIT, what do the Pokes need to get done this week to stay on track to qualify?

Beating Kansas State on Wednesday is a must. It would put the Cowboys two games over .500 with one game to play at Texas. The way Texas is playing, well, we’ll see. But the Cowboys need to be a game over .500 going into the Big 12 Tournament so they can use that first-round game as a springboard to win and get back to two games over .500. So a 1-1 week is essential, and K-State is Oklahoma State’s best opportunity. [HCS]

• It’s hard not to pull for this guy.

Non-OSU Bullets

• Tech and the confusing topic of “tipping”
• David Brooks comments around the nuclear family are thought provoking
• Handicapping the Tom Brady sweepstakes
