Daily Bullets (Jan. 4): Significant OSU Receiver Hits the Portal, Tramel Weighs in on Gundy Response

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

OSU Bullets

• Woof – an OSU beat writer is reporting that receiver John Paul Richardson is in the transfer portal

• Outside of TCU making the title game, it’s been a tough bowl season for the Big 12

• Berry Tramel had a great point about Mike Gundy’s harsh response to being asked about him making any potential staff moves:

If anyone thought the staff might stay status quo, those hopes were squashed by Gundy. He responded exactly like a coach who knows an announcement is coming. 

If sleepless nights (for OSU coaches) resulted from the (Marshall) Scott/Gundy exchange, it wasn’t caused by the question, it was caused by the answer.

• Commentary from John Smith after the Southern Scuffle win

• The Guaranteed Rate Bowl gave a pretty solid preview of the next defensive backfield at Oklahoma State

• Nice for the Pokes to get their first league win. If you can win as many as you lose in league play, that’s a team in the Big Dance.

Non-OSU Bullets

• Could you imagine an NCAA Tournament with 90 teams?
• It was truly an epic set of CFP games last weekend

The biggest generator of long-term results is learning to do things when you don’t feel like doing them.
