Daily Bullets (Oct. 3): Happy Bye Week, An Eye on the Weiberg Situation

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

Three Thoughts

• What a therapeutic moment for UNT to beat Tulsa – and feel like they have something on the Pokes… Who have their coach and best players (PFB)

• It’s fun to see the Todd Monken-led Cleveland Browns winning football games (CBS Sports)

• The Chad Weiberg scrutiny feels so wild (to me, an outsider) – these two quotes really drive home the absurdity of it.  Carson and Colby talk more about it here on the PFB podcast.

Any minute now, sources indicate to the Tulsa World, there could be a leadership change.

It is said that 54-year-old Oklahoma State grad Chad Weiberg may not be the athletic director for much longer…

 

If Weiberg no longer is the athletic director and (Eric) Morris is unhappy about it, what an idiotic mistake it would be.

And it wouldn’t be an OSU President Jim Hess move. Board of Regents fingerprints would be all over such a situation.

Two Quotes

• Brandon Weeden made lots of OSU fans smile, he’d certainly know.

“Brandon Weeden told (Eric Morris), ‘Hey Coach if you get this thing going, you’ll be surprised. Light a match underneath this thing and it’ll be incredible, like you’ve never seen.’ And so to see that and the people that care about this program so much, this university so much, just rewarding to see their faces after a win and smiling.” [GoPokes 247]

• Old friend Gavin Freeman has been super reliable this season:

Non-OSU Bullets

• Why Americans stopped throwing dinner parties • Per a FOIA request, four from the ACC are lobbying for rule changes in coming legislation (so they can leave the league)

“If you spend too much time thinking about the past, you miss out on what you have right now. Reflecting, learning, and moving on is a fruitful cycle. But replaying old mistakes and revisiting past injustices is a fast way to lose the opportunity of today. Don’t let one bad event beat you twice.” James Clear
