Has the B12 experienced parity, or just a bunch of really good teams? (Big 12 Sports)

OSU self-reports NCAA violations. I fixed the one for Yurcich: Offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich inadvertently responded to a text message from a junior prospective student-athlete. Yurcich was in the middle of sending permissible Facebook messages via the application on his phone when the text came in, and forgot the difference between Facebook messages and impermissible text messages. after he realized it he threw a swing pass with his phone.

OSU ranked as the 5th best QB situation in the Big 12. Probably about right, could see us as high as No. 3 or as low as No. 7. (ESPN)

OSU baseball is 4-0. Holliday: “We got better today and that’s the real goal is to grow as a team and just a great crowd. Real appreciative of the fans coming out and giving us a 1,600 attendance, that was a great way to get started.” (O’Colly)
