Daily Bullets (July 26): Hold Onto Your Quarterbacks

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

Three Thoughts

• CBS Sports has Mike Gundy as the No. 8 coach in the Big 12 (down from No. 4 last year) – it’s hard to think that’s true, but if you’re evaluating where coaches are in 2025 vs. over their career… it’s hard to argue it.  

• It would be great if OSU could hold onto both of their front-runners at quarterback, given this stat: 

Not since 2018 has a single quarterback started every game for the Cowboys in a season.

• Fascinating take here from Berry Tramel – it was the right call for the Big 12 to pass on Memphis, should take a long look at Boise State though.

Memphis doesn’t help the perception problem. Boise State would, but Memphis would not.

Memphis doesn’t add monetary value to the next television contract. Boise State would, but Memphis would not.

Saying no to Memphis was the right call for the Big 12. [TulsaWorld]
