Daily Bullets (June 6): OSU’s Touch on the NBA Finals

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

OSU Bullets

• If you’re looking for some OSU-flavor related to the NBA Finals that started last night: how Thunder Alex Caruso’s defense was shaped by Eddie Sutton (PFB)

•  Check out all the hardware and awards the national champion Cowboy Golf team is bringing home (PFB)

• Speaking of Cowboy Golf, this callback from old friend Kyle Porter on his Normal Sport newsletter concerning the most recent title-winning team was good (you can subscribe here): 

Zach Bauchou was the fifth-best player on that 2018 Oklahoma State title team. The fifth-best!

Hovland
Wolff
Eckroat
Ventura
Bauchou

The first four are all in the top 200 in the Data Golf rankings, and Bauchou is in the U.S. Open. Sick, sick stuff for a college team.

• Marshall Scott points out Cowboy Basketball has two open roster spots left, and they’ve offered an international point guard (PFB)

• Rarely have there been truer words – 

Just when you think Mike Gundy and Oklahoma State are done… they shock you with a big season. Are we due for another magical season from Gundy and his team?
