Opinion: Cade Cunningham's re-commitment is ray of light for Oklahoma State athletics

The loyal and true from Oklahoma State have had a rough few weeks.

It started June 5 when the NCAA handed down crippling sanctions on the men's basketball program that threw a promising season into question. Then came a shirtstorm within the football program, dividing head coach and players and fans and leaving questions about the future that have yet to be answered.

So much promise for OSU athletics seemed to go poof.

But Monday morning brought a reprieve.

A 6-foot-7 ray of light.

Cade Cunningham still wants to be a Cowboy. Even as the men’s basketball program faces the possibility of a postseason ban in 2021, the top recruit in the entire country and the potential top pick in the 2021 NBA Draft announced via Twitter he will be coming to OSU anyway.
