Daily Bullets (Apr. 2): Bill Self Back for Another Year, Eric Morris’ Timeline

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

OSU Bullets

• After retirement rumors circulated, OSU alum Bill Self announced he’s returning for the 2026-27 basketball season (ESPN)

• Berry Tramel ponders why Oklahoma State doesn’t have women’s volleyball (TulsaWorld)

• Something about the urgency Eric Morris talks with sounds distinctly unlike Mike Gundy: 

“We’re gonna find out really early in the season. I think going on the road, obviously to play Tulsa Week 1, but then we’ll probably have a top two or three team (Oregon) in Boone Pickens for our first test at home. So, we’re gonna figure that out really fast in the season, which I love…” [PFB]

• Profile on the Cowboys’ offensive coordinator Sean Brophy (PFB)

• The Big 12 lost four teams to the Pac-12 in wrestling (HCS)

• Not a bad April Fools joke here from OSU:

Oklahoma State is home to the movers and shakers of the world. Today, we proudly honor one whose courage sparked a nationwide movement, immortalized in BPS for generations to come. Thank you, shirtless man, for everything. pic.twitter.com/ouLWHDKEwh
