OSU Bullets

• Videos of students not being careful over the weekend aren’t great – but this bit on Oklahoma State athletes from Bill Haisten seems helpful.

For OSU and TU football players, there will be more virtual class involvement than classroom attendance. For several years, it’s been common for Oklahoma State football athletes to take online classes. [TulsaWorld]

• Luka Garza or Cade Cunningham for CBB player of the year

• There’s a little variety between the fan’s all-decade OSU Basketball team and mine

• It feels sort of wild to see a league that’s not the Big 12 having such a publicly rough moment.

Non-OSU Bullets

• Remote work is a platform
