• Pumped for Cowboy alum Lindy Waters to get a shot in the pros – signed a deal with the OKC Thunder yesterday. The Oklahoman did a fun piece on his story as an Oklahoma boy too.

• Mike Gundy’s in a great spot having convinced one of his best defensive coaches to switch spots

• This ESPN+($$$) article highlighted the future of the Big 12 and OSU’s potential spot as kingpin – interesting thoughts on how Mike Gundy plans to build it to the next level:

Gundy likens the situation to a company trying to attract investors. Oklahoma State isn’t a startup and he’s not a new CEO, but the program is entering an important new phase. His goal is to make “continual facility upgrades,” from a weight room to an academic center to new turf for fields.
