🎥 TALKIN’ BALL

It’s early April, but there’s no better time to talk some Cowboy football
than the present, right?

Let’s check in with how spring ball is rolling along.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Welcome To The Fam. One day after locking down one of the most prolific scorers in the portal, Coach Lutz and staff added another dynamic piece to the puzzle for next season.

On Tuesday, the Cowboys announced the addition of rising sophomore Vyctorius Miller (pronounced "victorious") from LSU.

Miller – who goes by the nickname "VJ" -- appeared in 25 games for the Tigers as a true freshman, averaging 8.9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 19.0 minutes.

The 6-foot-5 guard scored at least 15 points in seven of the Tigers' 13 non-conference games but was limited by ankle injuries over the final six weeks of the season, missing seven games over two separate stints.

The Los Angeles native comes from a famous family. His father, Vyshonn Miller, is rapper "Silkk the Shocker" and uncle, Percy Miller, is better known as "Master P."

🔼 Six Piece Special. Next week, the quest for a national championship gets underway in Florida.

But the hardware haul has already begun for the third-ranked OSU equestrian squad.

On Tuesday, the Cowgirls had six riders earn seven different All-American accolades.

Riley Hogan was named second-team All-American in Fences, while being named honorable mention in Flat. June Roberson was named first-team All-American in Horsemanship, with Claire McDowall earning a spot on the second team. Abby Budd and Emma Filiatreau claimed spots on the second team in in Reining, and Quincee Clark was named All-America honorable mention in Reining. 

This year's additions bring OSU's total to 82 All-Americans in program history under head coach Larry Sanchez.
