• Five Thoughts from the Cowboys’ win over St. Thomas (MN) yesterday in Gallagher Iba (PFB)

• Congrats to Austin Eckroat for winning a PGA tour stop over the weekend, a putter switch gone well. He also joins this shortlist of Pokes: 

Austin Eckroat is the ninth @OSUCowboyGolf alum to win multiple PGA Tour titles in the same calendar year.

The list of players he joins is pretty impressive:

• National college football media are picking up on the discord in Stillwater. Also, I’ve got no recollection of Mike Gundy went hunting in a Bed, Bath & Beyond: 

(Apology last Tuesday from Gundy) follows a rich history of Gundy apologies that followed lambasting a reporter when he was 40, wearing an OAN T-shirt that angered his star tailback and, of course, that time he tried to hunt wild boar inside a Bed, Bath & Beyond.

Unfortunately, scuttling that controversy with a sincerely worded apology inspired by a fortune cookie he had once read wasn’t enough to turn the Pokes’ fortunes on the field.

• ICYMI – Ten Thoughts from the loss in Fort Worth – thought No. 6 highlights how the Ollie diamond was the best three-play stretch 

• Jenni Carlson wrote an insightful piece on Friday about why the comments Mike Gundy made, either directly or indirectly at his fans, are a problem (NewsOK)

• With apologies to the full-time players and coaching staff, it really feels like this is true:

Oklahoma State has violently quit.
