ESPN Dallas writer David Ubben agrees with many Oklahoma State fans in saying that Wes Lunt's 11-for-11 performance against SSU was not a good indicator of how he will fare this season. Lunt played great, but as Mike Gundy said in this article, he was not placed in any difficult situations. He did not face a challenging blitz. He was not forced to make instinctive decisions. He didn't even face a third-and-long. Here, Ubben shines more light on that situation and talks with Gundy about Lunt.

Kelsi Dunne Named Assistant Softball Coach - Oklahoma State Official Athletic Site

The Cowgirls softball team made a big hire today by naming Kelsi Dunne the team's new pitching coach. Former pitching coach Clarisa Crowell left for the head coaching job at Miami (Ohio) in August.

It looks like both the softball and baseball teams are headed in the right direction with the hiring of young coaches to re-energize dormant programs.
