Three Thoughts

• This is the kind of stuff you count on with Kasey Dunn as your offensive coordinator – OSU landed a commitment from a four-star receiver from San Antonio yesterday (PFB)

• Bummer to see no Pokes still in it for the Olympic wrestling squad (PFB)

• Not ideal as a consumer but it’s hard to argue with Mike Gundy’s logic on bailing on the spring game concept: 

“So unless you’re gonna play a real game and just say, ‘Hey, we’re gonna go tackle and not worry about injuries,’” Gundy continued, “it’s not really a football game. And it’s hard to watch.”

One Question

• Landing a four-star at what position would make the biggest difference to Cowboy Football? 

Non-OSU Bullets

• Favorite snacks by state… this feels fraudulent, Cheetos are far superior 

• Teaching little ones to pray (faith-based)

This is amazing – kid Sam Presti writing into the Boston Globe in ’94:

While researching Pipeline to the Pros, we found the earliest document of Sam Presti's team-building philosophy – a letter to the editor in the Boston Globe on 4/10/94.

Presti argued it was time to "clean house," "clear salary room," and draft JKidd
