Josh: “What an amazing accomplishment for us. What an amazing collection of kids to bring us here, to bring our fans here, to bring our alumni together, to make OSU baseball something special that people are rallying around.” [NewsOK]

TCU lost twice to Coastal Carolina as well which means we get the Fightin’ Jim Furyks against the Fightin’ Dustin Johnsons for the title. [Big 12]

Jim Littell reflects on how his son got to this place. [NewsOK]

This was fun. I would have ranked Tech and UCSB much lower, but the CRFF fellas ranked all eight uniforms at the CWS. They certainly got the right No. 1. [CRFF]

The numbers won’t look good for OSU’s hitters. They batted just .182 over four games at the College World Series, with no home runs and seven extra-base hits to go with 15 singles. [NewsOK]

Josh: “I just want to celebrate them, thank them, thank the people who have cared for them in school, in the weight room, academic center, that have fed them, that have given them this chance, given us a chance to be together for this long and play up until the final game. So other than that, I’m not capable of probably putting a whole lot more together for you, because I need to spend some time with them and to properly thank them. But this is a celebration of a special team and wonderful bunch of kids.” [Go Pokes]

Conor Costello: “There’s a whole lot to be proud of, in terms of coming back to Omaha and putting Oklahoma State where it should be, back where it was in the ’80s and ’90s.” [NewsOK]

Wow.

Ty Thomas flipped to Arizona State. Bad news for the Pokes. [PFB]

Remember the Chris Johnson who Cam Netwoned OSU in the Baylor game last year? Yeah, he’s transferring to Houston. [Yahoo]

I love the arm around Peyton’s shoulder here.
