Daily Bullets: Gundy needs ’50 more practices’

This article will make you sad. Janavor Weatherspoon: “The fans believed in us, we believed in them. Stillwater fans, they’re a heartbeat with the team.” (NewsOK)

Wojo, gone. (Big Lead)

One AAU coach on Ford: “Oklahoma State has done a good job. Marcus Smart has saved that guy’s job. I absolutely think that if Marcus Smart didn’t go there, Travis Ford gets fired. Getting Marcus has opened up the doors for some other Texas kids to look at Oklahoma State and then they become sexy.” via @OSUMaverick (USA Today)

Spring ball photos from earlier this week, I like the 1/2 sleeves on the QBs. Shades of Weeden and Chelf. (Flickr)

We sound horrendous on defense right now. (Tulsa World)

OSU nearly nailed its projected points on scoring opportunities in 2013. That came courtesy of a great offense and a poor kicking game. (Football Study Hall)

Gundy: “I’m interested in bringing in coaches that want to teach and coach the game and don’t want to scream and yell.” He also calls Wickline “the other guy” (!!) (okstate)

People continue to rep Justin Gilbert as a future star. (NFL)

Kevin Peterson: “I use Justin as an example all the time. I came in and heard about his sophomore year, and then his junior year he kind of fell off. But coming back his senior year, he had a great season and should be a first-round draft pick. So I know to stay hungry, stay humble. It can all go away in a flash, or you can make your name in a flash. I just learned to stay pretty level-headed.” (NewsOK)

Gundy: “We need about 50 more practices.” (Tulsa World)

Well done, OU. Solid April Fool’s prank. Blake Bell must feel like a piece of meat at this point, though. (CBS Sports)

Mike Yurcich: “The main thing you want to make sure of with Tyreek is that you hand the ball to him to the right and to the left. Sometimes that will be the balance.” (NewsOK)
