S. Mandel hates Mike Gundy


I'm sure some of you guys may have already read this from Stewart Mandel's mailbag on si.com today, but it struck me as unusual. Below is a question posed by a reader regarding the lack of pre-season hype for Okie State and his reply. Kind of comical, really...

Why is no one talking about Oklahoma State? The Cowboys have Brandon Weeden at QB, who played pro baseball and has a cannon for an arm. He reminds me a lot of Chris Weinke at Florida State. Then you have new offensive coordinator Dana Holgorson, who learned his craft from Mike Leach. Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) is gone, Colt McCoy (Texas) is gone and Tech has a new coach. Why can't the Cowboys win the Big 12 South?
-- James White, Stillwater, Okla.

Four reasons:

1. Mike Gundy is still their head coach.

2. They lost to OU and Texas last year by a combined score of 68-14.

3. They lost nearly their entire starting offensive line, linebacking corps and secondary.

4. Mike Gundy is still their head coach.



I know a lot of posters on this board have a Tech-Is-Never-Respected attitude when it comes to the national media, but I don't think I've ever seen something like this about a coach. I don't disagree with Mandel's sentiment, at all. Do you?
