Three Thoughts

• Lots of articles from PFB looking forward to this afternoon’s game as the Pokes take on UCF in Orlando (PFB)
– Weekend watch guide
– Predictions for the game
 Preview and kickoff time

• Fun profile here on OSU coaching candidate Eric Morris – loved Justin Southwell’s reply as folks hope not to draw attention to Morris’ qualifications nationally (ESPN)

• Loved hearing this optimistic take about OSU Basketball – to accomplish it would take winning 20 games, including going .500 or better in conference play. 

This team’s ceiling is probably finishing in the top six or seven in the Big 12 and then reaching the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. That’s certainly doable, but would require something that hasn’t been done since 2005 and Steve Lutz hasn’t done as head coach — win multiple NCAA Tournament games. [GoPokes 247]

Two Quotes

• OSU can’t control many variables in the coaching search process but not having Baylor involved is nice:

Baylor is retaining coach Dave Aranda for the 2026 season. President Linda Livingstone: “We recognize this decision will generate strong opinions. Let me be clear: Baylor expects excellence, accountability and competitiveness at the highest level.”

• OSU’s freshman stud Sergia Vega talked about how he netted three top-ten wins last weekend:

“Just wrestling, honestly,” Vega said after Saturday’s matches. “I have the best coaches, the best teammates in the nation, so it’s just going out there and just scrapping, having fun, remembering that no one can match my pace and just trying to go out there and scrap hard.” [PFB]

One Question

• Liked this question – who should be next in OSU’s ring of honor?
