High school reunion: OSU's Bean, Walsh know Central Arkansas' Alec Willis very well

When Oklahoma State defensive end Jimmy Bean lines up Saturday against Central Arkansas, he'll see a familiar face snapping the ball.

He'll be trying to get past a former high school teammate of his in Central Arkansas center Alec Willis. Bean's not the only OSU player with a connection to Willis, as Cowboys quarterback J.W. Walsh also played at Denton Guyer High School in Texas at the same time.

OSU beat writer John Helsley says "it's going to be a little bit of a reunion of sorts on Saturday."

Helsley joins Oklahoman columnist Jenni Carlson in the NewsOK studio to talk about the Denton Guyer pipeline in his NewsOK update.
