STILLWATER – Mike Gundy was among the doubters a year ago. It shocked some when the Oklahoma State head coach questioned why running back Kendall Hunter was still unable to play last season after six weeks on the sideline with an ankle injury. Hunter, however, put to rest any doubts about his health in the 2010 season opener with a 257-yard performance in OSU’s 65-17 win over Washington State.

STILLWATER – Markelle Martin was only credited with three tackles and one pass broken up in the official statistics following Oklahoma State’s 65-17 victory over Washington State on Saturday night but he had a much bigger impact in the season-opening win. Want proof, just ask the OSU equipment crew which had to replace the junior strong safety’s facemask midway through the game.

From Kendall Hunter to Russell Okung, Oklahoma State has relied on its silent leaders the past several seasons. Hunter and Okung have long embodied the type of player that takes care of business on the field and doesn’t elaborate off of it. With Hunter still carrying that reputation on the offense, one Cowboys senior has developed a similar reputation on the other side of the ball.

Markelle Martin remembers what it was like two years ago when he was a wide-eyed freshman who was preparing to play his first major college football game. Now, with Oklahoma State’s 2010 season opener against Washington State just two days away, he knows what Cowboy veterans like Jacob Lacey, Jeray Chatham and Ricky Price were thinking as the freshman prepared for the 2008 opener in Seattle.

Lane Taylor broke into the Oklahoma State starting lineup a year ago as a freshman but now as the only returning starter the sophomore guard is expected to be the leader of the offensive line when the season opens Saturday night against Washington State.

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State fans should not be surprised to see a number of 18-year-old freshmen play in Saturday’s nationally televised season opener against Washington State, Cowboy head coach Mike Gundy said during Monday’s weekly news conference. Gundy says he’s comfortable in playing as many as 10 true freshmen against the Cougars at Boone Pickens Stadium.

The first official depth chart for the season was released Friday by Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy through the Media Relations Office and while there aren’t many surprises, there are a few.

If Bob Stoops had his way, the practice of red-shirting incoming freshmen to save them for later would be scrapped at Oklahoma.
