Watch: Mike Gundy Meets for Second Availability of Spring Football

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State football entered its second week of spring football on Monday, meaning head coach Mike Gundy met with the media to address the previous week and what to expect in week two.

“Nothing’s changed for us, we’ve had a good week,” said head coach Mike Gundy. “[Shoulder] pads, finally, so we get real football. Guys are doing good, we’ve been healthy – knock on wood – so far. So, we’re just going through the process. I shared with the staff today, I’d like for them to keep the rotations with players for the next six practices before we start to change some things up based on new-entry portal players, so we can get a good feel for everybody that gets six practices in pads. We’re getting a lot of reps. There’s a lot of reps to go around. Is there enough? No. But do I feel good about how many we’re getting? Yes.”

Some of the main topics of this week’s availability have been the progression of transfer quarterback Alan Bowman, as well as a handful of over newcomers from the transfer portal.

“They’re doing good; they’re throwing it – we weren’t rushing the passer because we didn’t have pads on, so making the D-line stop,” Gundy said of the quarterbacks entering into week two. “So, it’s a little unrealistic now, but these next threes practices, they’re gonna get pressured and we’ll see how they handle pressure, moving around in the pocket and deliver [the ball] and so on and so forth.”
