Oklahoma State has made a significant financial commitment in the program since he got there for sure. But it's not the only reason they are making as many pick ups as they are. it's also, for better or worse, the way of college athletics in 2025.

He’s certainly making the most of the “new coach bump”… we’ll see whether the bloom can stay on the rose long enough to have a roster that is equal to ours!

I think if he wasn't admitted, then he's still in the portal, though I'm not certain of that.

Given his academic path so far, his transcript could be a bit of a jigsaw puzzle for some schools to fit in. It’s not just grades and number of credits, but which courses is a big factor when transferring.
