Thanks for stopping by - here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.
Would be great if we could keep Glass for other teams. He did wonders, and there are some skeptics making comments about him who don’t squat. When I lived in Tokyo one of the guys I spoke to on the regular at the gym was a former Florida b.ball player who was playing professionally in Japan and retired who told me, “Your alma mater hired Rob Glass!” I said, “who?” Glass was at UF when this guy was there and said, he will do wonders with your football players. He was absolutely 100% correct.
I always wonder if Glass just failed to keep up with modern sports science and that’s why his results have waned in recent years, of if Gundy simply believed he could recruit any Tom, Dick or Harry and Glass could turn them into viable talents, and eventually that philosophy backfired. Either way, it became apparent that we were no longer getting the S&C results expected.
That’s not the reason, if you read articles, can’t remember if it was on this platform of PokesReport, but w/ all the transfers coming in, they just don’t have time to get them ready like before, and Gumby’s recruiting sucked, and we lost a number of key guys when that huge crowd of offensive players left. If you wanna blame one guy, go ahead.
