STILLWATER — During his introduction, Oklahoma State coach Eric Morris asked his five-year-old son George to help him out on stage.
George was initially too shy to remind the packed room what OSU’s live mascot name was, but then said “Bullet,” prompting this exchange.
Eric: “When we score a lot of touchdowns, do we need Bullet to be in shape?”
George: “Yes.”
Eric: “You’re dang right we do, Bullet has got to be in shape.”
Then senior associate AD Larry Reece, the stadium announcer during football games, chimed in: “Well, I can tell you right now that the announcer and Bullet are a little out of shape, so we’re gonna have to work on that moving forward.
