He had to go after her like that because if he got up in her face in some hallway like she deserved he'd be crucified for attacking a female reporter or something. It's a shame really, she needed some expletives thrown her way on top of the verbal beatdown.

Gundy is in over his head. He isn't head coaching material and is going down faster than a drunk cheerleader on prom night.

Their win yesterday was luck. Nothing more.

His whole unloading on the reporter is an attempt to rally the team into an Us against Them mentality. The reporter was just a convenient target. What she wrote was not all that bad, and was in fact dead on.

I know people within the OSU Athletic Department and it is well known that Bobby Reid is a prima dona who has been coddled his whole life and thinks the world revolves around him. Most of his teammates don't like him and it is true that the coaching staff has become fed up with his piss poor attitude.

I'd send my son play for him anyday. He cares about and protects his players. He knows that they are 19 and 20 year old kids.

19 and 20 year olds aren't kids. KIDS are kids. If you have children that age, or know any, you're not doing them any favors by coddling them with that attitude.

I can't see how you consider that luck.. all 49 points were lucky? If so, what were the points scored by TT? Pure athletic ability backed by coaching? By coach that never played football, but was a lawyer?

I'm not discounting Leach's coaching, which has been great over the years, but I'm discounting that you would consider a 49 pt performance luck. A large majority of college scores are "lucky". That's what happens when you have kids playing a game.

It was luck because they were playing a team that is equally as inept on defense as they are. It was luck that the Tech WR dropped the winning TD pass in the end zone.

Gundy is not a good coach. Period. Before he was forced upon Les Miles when he was coaching OSU Gundy was an unemployed failed QB coach and failed offensive coordinator. In fact even though he was the offensive coordinator under Miles he had no input on playcalling due to the fact that Miles didn't think much of his ability.

Shortly after his hiring Gundy began to use connection and friendship with T. Boone Pickens to stage a coup and force the AD out and be replaced with an AD who was 100% beholden to Pickens and was a Gundy supporter. Shortly thereafter the new AD, Gundy and Pickens staged another coup and got Miles run out of town and Gundy named head coach.

Don't believe me? Look at the statements that were made by Pickens that say his giving vast amounts of money to OSU Athletics were contingent on Mike Holder being made AD and Gundy being made head football coach.

the point was that there's no reason for an adult and a professional newspaper to trash talk a 19-20 year old.

I live in Stillwater, OK and I run into Mike every few days. He often shops at the supermarket where I work. I've got to say, as much as he is a local celebrity, hes also a very upstanding guy.

because they are 19-20 is not a reason to not trash talk them. Is there ever a reason for a newspaper to trash talk anyone? They aren't kids, they could be in the military at 18, and I wouldn't consider them "kids."

Good for Mike Gundy. I read the article and Jenny Carlson is clearly a classless piece of shit who was apparently sick the day they taught ethics at college. Assuming she even attended college that is. That article was so poorly written it really makes me doubt that she did.


I love the losers who are posting here and attacking Reid/sticking up for Carlson as well. First off, congratulations on being walking pieces of crap. Second, what's funnier than a bunch of nerds, most of whom probably still live in their mothers basements, attacking a college football player. The answer, by the way, is nothing.

I want to be in the locker room at halftime with him when they are getting killed. That would be fun.

I think the media is retarded in general, and I applaud this guy for standing up, even when he had just won, and he's yielding a feeling of triumph to stand up for one of his players.

People making fun of him in this thread don't have kids. And most likely never will.

He wasn't "coddling" anyone. He was protecting his player.

He was coddling. I don't think you'd see a 1950's college football coach sticking his neck out quite that far for his player over a newspaper article. Sure, the article may have went too far, and sure it likely upset the kid's mother, but I've read that this "kid's" teammates have even commented on how spoiled this kid is.

Gundy's rant was too long. He was repeating himself over and over. I think the rant wasn't just about the newspaper article, but included some venting for some other pent up frustration he has.

I think the people in the 1950's had the sense not to write pos articles like the one she wrote. Really who cares if a college player is spoiled by his mother. Why does that need to be in national news....
