Daily Bullets (Nov. 21): Retainable Cowboys

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

OSU Bullets

• Thoughtful stuff here evaluating 20 players the next OSU coach should look at keeping (PFB)

• Carson had some pretty clear thoughts on the coaching search in the latest PFB podcast (PFB)

• Doug Meacham talked about what his players are focused on as the season winds down:

“If you want to be totally transparent with the thing, they’re playing right now for the moment,” Meacham said. “It’s like free agency in the NFL. What you put on tape, you’re gonna get you what you want out of it, at this point.” [PFB]

• Haven’t heard this name in the OSU search in quite a while, but CBS Sports did a piece on Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein (CBS Sports)

• Can a college football fan enjoy a season without playoff expectations? (The Athletic) 

•  Update on tomorrow’s gametimes in Stillwater:

Non-OSU Bullets

• Enjoyed playing with this history map – you can see who was over an area (country/ruler) over time

• Finished a few books lately – really enjoyed John Grisham’s newest, this one on a Wall Street guy who started a baseball fund was better in theory, and found some empty calorie, entertaining reading in this Brad Thor series (it was just ok)
