Good Morning, OSU Fam. Let’s be honest here, how many of us setting the early alarms to watch some action at The Open before work tomorrow?

We’ll have plenty of Pokes to follow all weekend long!

What all do we have stirring in today’s Brew? Check it out below!

🎥 OSUMAX: FACE-TO-FACE

Oklahoma State transfer guard Anthony Roy is hoping to make an impact
in his final season of college basketball.

The Oakland, California native is coming to Stillwater after playing at Green Bay
for former Cowboy guard Doug Gottlieb. Learn more about Anthony on and
off the court in this Cowboy Face-to-Face interview.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Prepped For Portrush. There’s just something special about watching The Open Championship every year.

The mystique. The early tee times. Whatever it is, it’s one of the best golf weekends of the year and four Pokes will be right in the thick of the action.

Current OSU standout Ethan Fang will be teeing it up, along side former Pokes Wyndham Clark, Rickie Fowler and Viktor Hovland.

🔼 Path To The Pros. Earlier this week, five former OSU baseball standouts reached their dream with their selection in the MLB Draft.

On Tuesday, two more Pokes joined the pro ranks as veteran backstop Ian Daughetry reached a free-agent contract with the Minnesota Twins and southpaw Ryan Ure inked a deal with the Kansas City Royals.

⏱️ COUNTDOWN TO KICKOFF: 4️⃣3️⃣ DAYS

43 days away from kickoff..

The year was 194️⃣3️⃣.

It was the first time that the OSU faithful got a glimpse of who they were about to enjoy for the next four seasons…. Bob Fenimore.

In just his second season, he established himself as one of the nation's finest players in 1944. Fenimore led the country in total offense, while placing in the top 10 for most rushing yards, passing yards and scoring, along with averaging 37.3 yards per punt. In 1945, Fenimore was the national leader in both total offense (1,641 yards) and rushing (1,119), while ranking seventh in punting (39.0) and 13^th in scoring (72).

His 18 interceptions during his OSU career remain a school record, and his 4,627 career yards of total offense were not eclipsed until Mike Gundy came along more than 40 years later.

The No. 1 selection of the 1947 NFL Draft, Fenimore was the first player from the university to earn All-America honors as he led his teams to an 8-1 record and Cotton Bowl victory in 1944 and a perfect 9-0 record capped off with a Sugar Bowl win and a ranking of fifth in the final Associated Press poll in 1945. His No. 55 jersey is one of four no longer in use at Oklahoma State.
