Carson Cunningham and I joked on our podcast earlier this year that Mike Gundy doesn’t do #SwagCopters, he does #SwagTractors. And then Gundy up and got himself into a whirly bird to help round out his 2018 recruiting class.
The photos were predictably hilarious, but Gundy said on Wednesday that his chopper was not only for show. It was also economical, which matters when you’re trying to juggle bowl game prep and hold off crootin poachers.
Gundy said he visited almost every player in his class in person, except for the guys in south Texas, and his chopper was one of the biggest reasons why.
