What a weekend.
On Friday afternoon, Oklahoma State lost a heartbreaking first round NCAA Tournament game to Michigan, 92-91. The Wolverines caught fire from three, hitting 11-of-15 three-pointers in the second half and evoking memories of NBA Jam in the process.
About 27 hours later, Brad Underwood was standing next to Illinois Athletic Director Josh Whitman wearing the wrong shade of orange, stunning Oklahoma State officials, members of the basketball program, and fans alike.

It’s been a whirlwind since then, but at the end of the day, it’s time for the Cowboy basketball to move on and replace Brad Underwood.
