Happy Easter everyone. Hate that we have to spend it apart from those we’re close to.

• Bill Haisten says OSU’s administration had a pow-wow earlier this week on the Gundy comments, and it doesn’t sound all that great.

The OSU administration is said to have been embarrassed by Gundy’s Tuesday performance, during which he referred to the coronavirus as “the Chinese virus” and compared COVID-19 (for which there is not yet a vaccine) to the flu (for which there is a variety of proven treatments). [Tulsa World]

• Several players’ parents stick up for Mike Gundy and his comments on coronavirus.

• Kyle Boone says Gundy whiffed on his apology as well.

• This is good on what Mike Gundy learned from Eddie Sutton.

• Speaking of Sutton, this on his introduction date in 1990 is spectacular. Such a great job to go back and get all these quotes from different people who were there.

• JT Thor commits today. Here are our predictions (+).

• Good stuff here on potential future safeties for OSU.

• John Smith is doing some absolute WORK on the recruiting trail.

• I don’t believe this number in terms of what percentage of sports fans would not go to a game without a vaccine. Speaking of, Dennis Dodd had some good stuff on his timeline about all of this over the weekend.

What the fall of 20, winter of 21 might look like before we have a vaccine: "Presidents are the ones really grappling with this the most bc … these are students first." NCAA Chief Medical Officer Brian Hainline.
