Andy & Ari On3

Oklahoma State has fired coach Mike Gundy after 20 years. Gundy was the best coach in Cowboys history, but he also had struggled recently to adapt to the changes in the game. The low points kept coming this season. After Oklahoma State lost 69-3 at Oregon, the Cowboys then lost to Tulsa at home.

Andy and Ari break down Gundy’s career and look to who Oklahoma State might target to replace Gundy.
