Mike Gundy wasn’t the best high school student.
He will be the first person to tell you, and interim TCU coach Jerry Kill would probably agree. After all, he was Gundy’s biology teacher at Midwest City in 1984.
“(Kill was) a motivator,” Gundy said. “No excuses. You know, very traditional, old-school mentality.”
Gundy, Oklahoma State’s football coach, was more eager for the 2:30 p.m. dismissal bell signaling time for football or baseball practice than dissecting animals
Kill left the Bombers in 1985, accepting the defensive coordinator position at Pittsburgh State, and bouncing around different coaching positions over the next three decades.
