I tend to agree with Traber's observation that something behind the scenes is going on up at OSU that's made the situation what it is. There's just no point - none - in canceling a spring game. That's a fan thing, a rite of passage every year, an off-season "party" if you will, and there's simply no PR "plus" to canceling it - but LOTS of negatives.

I don't think its an unusual or stretched conclusion to observe something goofy is going on at OSU. I personally suspect its Holder, and as it pertains to Gundy, I suspect it has to do with Ford getting a ten-year contract for doing essentially nothing (so far), while Gundy has won them a Big 12 title in Boone's favorite sport. I think nerves, personalities, emotions, and feelings are raw now. Perhaps bridges are burned. Who knows.

Anyway, I think something is going on, and I don't think Traber's observations are that out of line. Don't know if I'm ready to agree that Gundy is "gone" after this year - but would it shock me? Nope. To say the OSU athletic dept right now is dysfunctional is to be generous.

It's probably fair to say that Traber and the rest of media knows a lot more than they are telling?
I have heard rumors from Stillwater based sources about Gundy that the local media wouldn’t dare touch at this point.
The media has probably heard some of the same things.
