Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy would have put himself on the injury report heading into the Cowboys’ matchup against No. 13 BYU this week if he could.
Gundy revealed on Monday he “had a run-in” with his cattle over the weekend that left him with an eye injury. He conducted his weekly media briefing over Zoom.
“I’ve got a bad eye that I didn’t think would be particularly enjoyable for people when they were looking at my pretty face in a live interview,” Gundy said. “But more importantly, it’s full of blood, and I get dizzy.
“So it’s not easy to be upright and be in a normal function. But other than that, I’m doing great.”
Gundy is going to have to keep at least one eye on the prize in a tough matchup against the unbeaten Cougars. He said the injury is improving every day.
“I’m fine, and it should get better every day,” he said. “Hopefully it’ll get a little better. But I’m fine. I’m working the same hours. I mean, it’s no big deal. I just didn’t think it was very appealing.”
