I feel like Okie St is like Auburn lite. Second state school, usually 8-4 to 10-2.

He applied for the Tennessee job last off-season and rumors are he wants a change and doesn’t feel appreciated

Could the mullet go to Arkansas or Mizzou or another opening?

I’ve seen some Oklahomans saying he’s done at OSU, but not sure how legit that it.

He’s a good coach. I’d be happy with him at Mizzou.

His son did or does go to Arkansas.

Haven’t heard him come up in our search this time though.

If Arky or Mizzou could get him they should asap.

I thought he turned down more money to stay at OSU?

Someone asked, “Who could Arkansas hire that would worry you?”

Mike Gundy. Gundy could easily net Arkansas success.

Gundy is similar to Leach in some ways, the defense is a speed bump for their offenses.

They would rather trade points, hope they hold a team to a fg, than actually stop people.



Sure, it works in Big12

I dunno, seems to me he could have had a good shot at any of the big boy jobs that have been open in the past few years: Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, Texas. Why leave now for Arkansas? That job may be a step down from Okie Light. At best it’s a lateral move

Him anywhere else just feels wrong. He’s as Oklahoma State as they come. Him in the SEC would be bizarre to say the least.

He should go to the ACC. I think he could do well
there.

I seriously doubt he ever leaves Oklahoma State for another school.

He has been at Okie Light in some capacity for most of his life at this point.

OSU has always been 2nd in the state in football. Will never change. He has had more 9 & 10 win seasons than any coach in their history. He has 8 seasons with 9 or more wins.

No he really did not "apply" for the Tennessee job. Coaches with tenures as long as Gundy do not apply for anything.

At this point if Gundy leaves Stillwater College, it will be to retire.

I would be ecstatic to land Gundy at Mizzou.

Probably headed to the Dallas Cowboys as head coach/OC. Jerry ain't letting him go to Arkansas when he's needed in Dallas.

He didn't turn down A crap ton of money at Tenn to wait for the Arky job to open. FFS
