Been at home with the kiddos for Spring Break:

Scores
Baseball: TCU 1, OSU 0
Softball: BYU 11, Cowgirls 8
Three Thoughts
• All the fingers crossed that at 6pm CST, Daton Fix can get the only thing that’s alluded him – a national title (PFB)
-> Dustin Plott is in the national finals as well, getting another shot at who beat him for the Big 12 title
• Cowgirl Softball added a pitcher to the 2024 class – is it unreasonable to assume this girl is all-conference caliber since the Cowgirls are a contender annually? (OKState.com)
• Fun to think about how good Ollie Gordon is – and here’s a great description of what makes him special:
While (Gordon’s) long speed is only slightly above average and he’s an upright runner at 6-foot-1, Gordon’s elite vision and footwork allow him to gash defenses for big gains. [PFF]
Two Quotes
• How Cowboy Wrestling turned things around:
“We didn’t like losing. Obviously, we didn’t want to lose,” 133-pounder Daton Fix said. “We didn’t want to have those down years. But it happened. And it’s just a matter of what you do about it. As a team, we all decided that we were gonna have a good year this year. And I think it’s shown.” [O’Colly]
• This is a pretty wild stat about Brad Underwood:
Brad Underwood has 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 advanced beyond the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament.

One Question
• What OSU coaching candidate have you been most impressed with in the NCAA Tournament?
Non-OSU Bullets
• Favorite musical artists of coaches in the Big Dance
• Great read on rethinking your assumptions – some stuff on working through conflict/debates was great too
This is kind of fun – Cowboys, Sooners, Penn State, and Notre Dame (all bluebloods right?) as No. 4 seeds:
