Three Thoughts

• Cowboy Baseball made weekend plans and the home opener is set for middle of next week

• This take on how Oklahoma State recruits Texas – in context of other college football programs – was insightful. OSU and Arkansas roughly do about the same.

Schools like Kansas and Ole Miss carpet bomb the state with 120+ offers a cycle. Oklahoma State and Arkansas send out offers in high numbers but are able to consistently compete with in state schools Baylor, TCU, and Texas Tech.

• Looking over the mock drafts and where they have Teven Jenkins – it seems the right spot will be someone who ultimately wants him at right tackle.

Two Quotes

• Senior Day will be an emotional one for Cowgirl star Natasha Mack:

“I’ll probably shed a few tears (when Reece announces my name),” Mack said. “That might be the last time I hear that, so I don’t know, it’s going to be an emotional day.”

• Campus really doesn’t have a bad look – also, this snowball fight on campus looks incredible.

Non-OSU Bullets

• Where did the flu go?

Something about this Brooklyn Nets team is just fun – it’s basketball as an art. This line about Kyrie vs. Harden was good too:

That’s been one of the biggest differences between Harden and Kyrie Irving in Brooklyn. Kyrie scores as if he’s being judged on the degree of difficulty on every possession. Harden does it like he’s playing in sweatpants at the park:
