Top 20 Oklahoma State Football Players OSU’s New Coach Should Bring Back in 2026

STILLWATER — Oklahoma State’s next head football coach will have five days to re-recruit the Cowboys roster.

After that, the transfer portal reopens for the program, allowing other schools to reach out to those players, making it that much harder to retain talent.

When that happens, interim coach Doug Meacham outlined some of the players who could get bombarded by calls first, presumably those would be the ones OSU wants to retain as well.

“I know it is an unpopular viewpoint, but a lot of people look at those PFF grades and go … I don’t think that is fair and all that,” Meacham said.
