MBB: Texas Tech 78, Cowboys 57
OSU Bullets
• Five Thoughts on the Pokes road-loss to Texas Tech
• The latest “Feels Like 45” podcast talks about Cowboy Basketball and transfer portal targets
• Recruiting Update: The Pokes offered a touted offensive tackle (high schooler) and a running back from a Power Five program in the portal
• This on how Mike Boynton recruits isn’t surprising at all:
“I’m just big on building bridges, not burning them,” Boynton said. “So whether something goes the way I want it to in recruiting, I still talk to several guys that I recruited who never came here…”
• I’m a bit floored that someone would have OSU as low as fourth in the way-too-early Big 12 rankings for next fall
• OSU sports are No. 19 nationally for the Director’s Cup standings – tops in the Big 12
• I feel like “under-recruited fighters that will scrap for every inch” may be used to describe Mike Gundy’s football teams also:
• Looks like the Pokes are losing some off-field (and on-field in McFarland’s case) assistants to Ohio State as a result of Knowlesgate:
Non-OSU Bullets
• Lots of talk about goals
• How to make a difficult decision
• Marriage’s greatest challenge (faith-based)
I agree with this take – regionalization of title game attendees doesn’t help anyone. Relegation may be a fun way to reinvigorate interest.
