Daily Bullets (July 31): Game Themes, Rickie Chasing

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

OSU Bullets

• OSU announced “themes” for the home football games this fall (PFB)

• Rickie Fowler is on the heels of the leader at the Rocket Open, trailing by two strokes, tied for second (CBS Sports)

• Love this line on OSU football from an ESPN writer:

“As with Virginia Tech, improvement is all but guaranteed in Stillwater, but the potential magnitude of the rebound really interests me. New head coach Eric Morris is grafting half of the best offense in the country onto what was the worst roster in the Big 12; his transfer haul is easily my favorite…” [ESPN]

• The Athletic rated Oklahoma State the fifth-most valuable football program in the conference (HCS)

• Lots of Pokes going pro in the last decade under Josh Holliday.

Non-OSU Bullets

• There are four types of thinkers • Looking forward to this book coming out in November given this line – What if OKC had kept Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden?

I’m in love with this sentence:
