Daily Bullets (Mar. 10): Pokes Open in Kansas City, All-Time First Year QB Expectations

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

OSU Bullets

• Previewing tonight’s OSU-Colorado game in Kansas City (PFB)

• OSU coaches talking about receiver Wyatt Young after the first practice – it was pointed out that Cooper Kupp’s college coach was brought in to coach him (PFB)

• This feels like a pretty undeniable statement about expectations for Drew Mestemaker that Bill Haisten concludes with: 

Because of Mestemaker’s revenue, because he was so good for North Texas last season and because the Cowboys have an 18-game losing streak against league opponents, more will be expected of the 6-foot-4 Austin native than any previous Oklahoma State first-year starting quarterback. [TulsaWorld]

• Impressive offensive improvement from Hoyt’s Cowgirls this year (X)

•  Chuba Hubbard’s backup left Carolina and is headed to Pittsburgh to play with Jaylen Warren (ESPN)

• Eric Morris on the first day of spring practice:

“Trust in yourself is not only built through successful repetitions, but also through failed ones. When you have worked through failures in the past, you fear them less in the future. You know you can bounce back. Successful repetitions build competence. Failed repetitions build resilience.” James Clear

This guy is easy to cheer for. 

The first true legend of March is a High School Hooper named Hunter Abner. Walking Bucket.
