    OSU at Missouri State

    Being the A.D. is a tough job. I'm curious if Weiberg gives a "perception" of weakness that gives coaches like Gundy and Holliday the idea that they can get away with "slacking" or otherwise not expecting repercussions from allowing their teams to decline. Obviously there are other coaches that...

    Dunn and Nardo gone, per reports

    Can you enlighten us on Weiberg? He comes across soft but did hire D.T. and replaced Boynton with Lutz. Great moves. If Weiberg was an aggressor in initiating the Coordinator firings then he scores even more points. Or was he instructed by others to make these moves today?

    Changes Need to be Made

    I hope that in the future, the administration can be smarter with their contracts. Future agreements need to offer a competitive base with a focus on incentives/achievements to boost compensation to the next level. No rolling renewals or 10 year deals. It needs to go both ways. I don't care if...

    Changes Need to be Made

    I think it's pretty clear that the players have delivered their message to Gundy by the way they played. No need to drop by the office to "talk about it". Went over Gundy's head.

    Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Baylor

    I wasn't able to watch the game today. Looking at ESPN highlights on the 55 yard score by the Baylor RB, this is a pure example of bad football. One Baylor O-Lineman takes out two OSU tacklers at the line, clearing room for the RB. About five yards later, there are two more OSU tacklers in...

    Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. BYU

    I am questioning if Dunn is capable, then why does the offensive "game plan/play calling" suck so often? Does this point to lack of motivation to put time/effort into a successful plan? Is there too lax of a coaching environment?

    Super regionals

    Agreed. Hopefully, A.D. Weiberg has a post season review with Josh and certainly while congrats are warranted for the B12 championship, a discussion on what is needed to get to the next level takes place. Hopefully, expectations of the university and fans are clearly stated that OSU baseball is...

    Regionals

    Holliday teams tease you during the season and then this happens....and to a team a couple games over .500. But I still have some hope.

    Post season expectations

    Gary Ward spoiled me. I have high expectations for Poke baseball and believe they should be in Omaha more often. The B12 Championship was great but every season is a "thud" when we don't make it past a regional. By OSU standards I think Holliday has done a "good" job but has not attained the...

    Pokes at Horns

    I think Josh is an average coach at a college with MUCH more potential. Ten years is a long stint to deliver "meh". I agree the heat needs to turned up quickly and maybe think about life after Josh.

    Mark Byington (James Madison U. ) to Vanderbilt appears to have occurred.

    Who Should OSU Hire as Next Basketball Head Coach?

    Goggled Steve Alford and there was a Tulsa World article yesterday discussing him as a top candidate who is also interested in the OSU job. He has head coaching experience that Chad desires and decent success at various places. Alford won't be available immediately as Nevada is in the tourney...

    Who Should OSU Hire as Next Basketball Head Coach?

    It is a shit-show. The current AD needs to earn the ~$750k salary that he is paid.
