OSU Bullets

• Tulsa World reports the coaching search in Stillwater is a ‘mess’ as West Virginia reportedly is set to hire one of the top candidates – Pokes Report weighed in late last week stumping for Utah State coach Danny Sprinkle

• Weekend Recap
– Daton Fix and Dustin Plott grab silver medals, day three of the NCAAs wrapped up for the Cowboys, the Pokes finished in tenth place (PFB + X)
– Cowgirl Softball took the weekend series over BYU (PFB)
– Pokes took the series from a ranked TCU team after winning yesterday (PFB)

• Deeper cut but still good – which freshman or sophomore has the best chance to break out on this Cowboy Football team? 

(247 Sports) think(s) freshman safety Landyn Cleveland has the chance to see the field plenty. He comes in with good size and speed, and understands Nardo’s defense. As Kendal Daniels plays more in that linebacker/safety/rover role, I could see Cleveland rotating withTrey Rucker and Lyrik Rawls.
