• Mike Gundy previewed Senior Day against Texas Tech in his latest presser with updates on playing young players, how coaches are doing (PFB)

• This seems like a terrific deal for the Big 12 – some games will move from ESPN+ to TNT/TBS next season (Awful Announcing)

• Solid quote from Cowboy coach Steve Lutz when he was asked about what a successful trip to the Charleston Classic later this week looks like (see bracket here): 

“I approach every game the same way,” Lutz said. “We should win those games. I would want to return home with a championship and be 3-0. Now, will we do that? I can’t say that, but you play the game to win the game. I’m not wired to say I’m excited or I’m happy if we go 2-1 or 1-2. That’s not who they hired when they hired me.”

• 40 minutes of analysis on Cade Cunningham’s game if you’re following the Pokes (YouTube)

• Former Cowboy Tyreek Smith committed to a third Big 12 team in his career (CBS Sports) 

• There was just something refreshing about how Chris Kleiman processed losing over the weekend – wouldn’t mind seeing that in a presser in Stillwater now and again.

K-State HC Chris Klieman gets emotional in the postgame presser and had to take a moment before continuing
