OSU Bullets

• Five-star forward MJ Rice is headed to Lawrence but this article does a great job of outlining who the Pokes are still in on for the 2022 class

• Cowboy Football is ranked in the preseason top 25 for the coaches poll

• There’s love to be lost between Mike Gundy and Bob Stoops:

“Oklahoma State has a great athletic program,” Stoops said during a recent discussion on the Bob Stoops App. “They’ve been a top-20, -25 football team for a decade now probably and you look at all their sports are good. I hate it, to be honest with you. In the state of Oklahoma, I really enjoy Oklahoma State and follow them and all the other sports and I do football. Mike Gundy is a close friend of mine and I root for him all the time other than with us. In the end, the lack of opportunity isn’t there.”

• The receiver that was drafted in the first round by the Baltimore Ravens went out yesterday with a non-contact injury – meaning: Tylan Wallace will have some opportunity

• PFF projects the Cowboys to win 7.8 games this fall – I’m curious to see how this compares to the fan expectation from OKC Dave’s survey.

That’s reasonably 3-0 in non-conference play and going 5-4 in the league, mayyybe with a loss to Boise and going 6-3 in league play.

• Job board: we’re hiring a photographer!

• Cade got whatever he wanted off the No. 2 pick in the draft last night:

Non-OSU Bullets

• Interview with Ryen Russillo and Malcolm Gladwell talking Pacific theater in WWII? Yes, please.
• Pics of the newest UNESCO World Heritage sites are pretty awesome
• Give me all the real-life application from Narnia articles (faith-based)

Auburn is all over this all-name team. I would be 1,000 percent OK with the Pokes offering General Booty – dude comes from CFB royalty.
