TILLWATER — Oklahoma State dominated national news headlines this week after the Cowboys unveiled their decision to put QR codes on players' helmets.
It’s just one of many ways Oklahoma State Mike Gundy hopes to combat the ever-widening gap at the top of college football when it comes to NIL.
“We're not paying a ton of money,” Gundy said. “We only paid $2.7 million last year, and there were 25 teams that paid over $15 million. We know that for a fact, and maybe more than that.”
Gundy said the Cowboys have managed to remain competitive the last two seasons in part because his reputation and the Cowboy’s track record of success allowed them to close some gaps in recruiting.
The Oklahoma State coach doesn’t see that impact remaining as significant in the future.
