Daily Bullets (Aug. 3): Breaking Down Fall Camp Day One, All Four Corners Coming?

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

OSU Bullets

• Realignment nuggets:
– As of early yesterday evening, the remaining “four corners” schools seem to be closing in on a deal with the Big 12
– Arizona’s Board of Regents (over Arizona and Arizona State) is meeting this evening to discuss
– It appears UConn is not looking like an addition at this time
– Big Ten met last night to discuss Pac-12 and ACC additions

Schools such as Arizona, Utah, and Arizona State entered discussions with the Big 12. Arizona was the furthest along of the three going into this part of the process and in the last 24-48 hours, Arizona State and Utah joined the Wildcats. Although it is not completely finalized yet, sources indicate that Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah are all likely to join the Big 12.

Oklahoma State isn’t the first team you might think of for producing elite talent at tailback, but Chuba Hubbard had a splendid career, and he’s joined Justice Hill and Chris Carson as alums getting a little run in the NFL, too.
