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

OSU Bullets

• After his head coach took an NBA gig, Mike Boynton was (logically) named the interim coach for Michigan yesterday – can you imagine what he could do with Michigan recruiting? (PFB)

What a year.

Mike Boynton’s year:

Wins a national title as a lead assistant

His Knicks win an NBA title

• Jacie Hoyt added another big to her roster yesterday (PFB)

• Solid summary here of what happened with Cowboy wrestlers over the weekend, Pokes were working to qualify for the US World Team: 

 Former Cowboy wrestler Wyatt Hendrickson won the 125 kg weight class at Final X, earning a spot on Team USA for the second consecutive year. Former Cowboy Dustin Plott and reigning NCAA Champion Landon Robideau each won their true-third matches and will be part of the national team. Jax Forrest narrowly missed out on a team spot.

• What a move by the head Cowgirl in landing her star center, Audie Crooks:

The All-American made up her mind to become a Cowgirl after Oklahoma State coach Jacie Hoyt took what Crooks described as a “unique” recruiting tactic halfway through her visit. “She had put together some clips and it was like a lowlight reel,” Crooks said. “… It was just a reel of missed layups.” [PFB]

• Carson had some solid commentary on Wyndham Clark’s place in Cowboy fandom – you can see Clark’s thoughts on the situation here:

It’s a bit of a Jalen Hurts/Chris Gotterup situation w/ #OKstate “claiming” Wyndham, since he finished his final season at Oregon. My take: 4 years vs. 1 year has merit especially w/ Clark’s family situation contributing. This would double Bob Tway’s lone major for the school. https://t.co/bFluUVmi1E

• WSJ has a fun quiz on who you could cheer for in the World Cup (based on your playing style preferences) • Fighting for holiness (faith-based)

It’s true. 

if a toddler puts a sticker on you, that’s a sign of great respect in their culture
