OSU Bullets

• Berry Tramel pointed out a fascinating piece of history – what if the University of Miami hadn’t come to hire Leonard Hamilton?

Need a nightmare scenario? What if Miami had not come calling on Hamilton that spring? What if (Eddie) Sutton, having sat out the season and itching to return to the college game, had taken another job?

[NewsOK]

• CBS Sports says to take Miami in the cheese snack bowl – apparently the Pokes struggle against running quarterbacks and D’Eriq King is just that

• A couple of Pokes made the Senior Bowl All-American Team

• Sad news – Chester Pittman, first African-American player for Cowboy Football passed away

• Good list of Miami players to know

• This was a cool shot – a pic of the last time (the only time) the Pokes and Canes played:

• This was a fun – a TU linebacker OSU faced early in the year won defensive player of the year

Non-OSU Bullets

• College football needs a commissioner and an eight-team playoff
• I like a couple of these Christmasy “non-Christmas” movies – Catch Me If You Can was great, The Apartment was hilarious
• The Christmas Ladder (faith-based)
