Daily Bullets: Holliday wants guys to ‘fall in love’ with OSU

Baseball

Holliday: “We’re together. We get to keep playing. We get to keep wearing this uniform. Wherever they send us or whatever happens, we’re going to embrace it, man. Because the alternative is not being together. And the alternative – whew – that’s hard to think about.” (Big 12 Sports)

How cool would it be if half the field in Omaha was Big 12 teams? (Star-Telegram)

Interesting theory here from Holliday on why he doesn’t focus on Juco transfers: “We made the decision when we were hired to build this team through youth, and to do it the right way, so that we could hopefully establish long-term sustainability within the program. Kids playing here for three and four years and graduating and falling in love with Oklahoma State. And they wear this uniform with a lot of pride.” (NewsOK)

Can you guys believe it’s been 15 years since we went to Omaha? I was in middle school! I remember that team had LaMont Matthews on it and was just so awesome. Would love to see a repeat this year. (NCAA)

Good post here from Berry on how big the business of college football is and why Nick Saban isn’t overpaid. (NewsOK)

Like we’ve been saying, the sample size on OSU’s turnover margin is large enough to draw conclusions that it’s an area that OSU excels at, not just luck. (ESPN)

This 16-team BCS-era Big 12 playoff is outstanding. OSU got a rough draw with the 8-seed and faces 2003 OU. Wow! (ESPN)

Speaking of being paid a lot of money. Calipari just got $52 million. (CBS Sports)
