OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Now that Oklahoma State has come so close to playing for the BCS championship, Mike Gundy is asking for help to keep his team as one of college football’s elite.
Gundy called on Oklahoma State’s administration and fans Tuesday to make a commitment now to keep the third-ranked Cowboys as a prominent national program. OSU won a school-record 12 games this season, claiming its first Big 12 championship and playing in and winning its first BCS bowl game.
Gundy says these are “uncharted waters” at Oklahoma State and if everyone isn’t committed, the Cowboys risk falling back.
Gundy wants OSU to keep up with other top programs in terms of facilities. He also is becoming underpaid when compared to his Big 12 peers.
