How ‘meathead’ Carson Kolb rose up the Oklahoma State tight end depth chart
- Oregon State transfer Carson Kolb and Morgan McPhaul are listed as Oklahoma State's possible starting tight ends against Tulsa after injuries limited veterans Oscar Hammond and Donovan Green.
- Kolb led Oklahoma State's tight ends in spring catches and continued climbing through summer and fall camp, turning an expected special-teams role into a possible offensive start.
- Eric Morris praised Kolb's processing speed, positional versatility, blocking and toughness, while identifying contested catches and ball skills as his remaining developmental priorities.
- Kolb is expected to start across Oklahoma State's special-teams units even if Hammond or Green returns and reduces his tight-end workload.

Post-practice bullets: Eric Morris discusses starting right tackle, Aussie punting styles
- Portland State transfer Shaun Torgeson has moved ahead of Ashton Lepo and would probably start at right tackle if Oklahoma State played immediately, according to coach Eric Morris.
- The 6-foot-4, 302-pound Torgeson emerged as a camp surprise because of his strength, athleticism and fast mental processing after arriving as a late portal addition.
- Oklahoma State is using a mock situational game to rehearse substitutions and sideline operations while practicing outdoors to prepare for Tulsa's expected heat advantage.
- Morris gives quarterback Drew Mestemaker significant freedom to check plays at the line, with coordinator Sean Brophy staying on the field and assistant Kevin Kilmer expected in the booth.
- Sophomore punter Lachie Pozzobon produced what Morris called an exceptional camp and gives Oklahoma State multiple options through both spiral and drop-punt styles.
