Column: Cowboys can handle QB controversy

RACHAEL MALTBY/O’COLLYJ.W. Walsh (center) left the game against Missouri State with an apparent right foot injury.

J.W. Walsh limped to the locker room in the first quarter Saturday against Missouri State, and the emotional roller coaster that is the Oklahoma State quarterback position started up once more.

Demoralizing as it can be for a team to lose its starting quarterback, there were plenty of reasons reasons the Cowboys weren’t immedi-ately derailed, and won’t be

no matter what happens at quarterback.

Walsh has developed a reputation as a fearless, almost invincible leader. As a freshman, he played through a severe knee injury in the best performance of his career. As a sophomore, he reclaimed the starting job, then lost it again.

Now, as a junior, he was back at the helm and again put to the test. There was little reason to believe he wouldn’t overcome.

“That’s exactly what we were thinking, thinking he was going to go to the locker room, get taped up and be

right back out,” receiver Brandon Sheperd said. “… J-Dub is the man.”

But that’s not at all what happened.

Walsh spent the rest of the game on crutches. OSU coach Mike Gundy said Saturday he wasn’t sure how severe the apparent right foot injury is.

Instead of Walsh, Daxx Garman trotted out to lead the Cowboys on their next possession. The enigmatic backup hadn’t taken a mean-ingful snap since his junior year of high school. He said he didn’t even remember his last touchdown pass.

But what Garman lacks in experience he makes up for with a rocket arm that has been the talk of the offsea-son.

For the third year in a row, OSU watched its starter go down, only to see a capable backup take over. For some teams, it would devastate morale.

But that’s nothing new in Stillwater. The fact the Cowboys have been through it before after two years of quarterback controversies was only another reason for reassurance.

“Teams usually have that set quarterback, but I feel

like our coaching staff does a pretty good job making you fight for your job every practice,” defensive tackle James Castleman said.

“It showed how Daxx isn’t going to give up for this spot even though J-Dub is starting. I feel like we also have good depth at our quar-terbacks. We don’t have just a drop off where one is the definite better one.”

The third reason, in case there were any doubters left, soon became clear.

After going 2-of-5 on a shaky first series, Garman backed up all the talk. He delivered a series of im-

pressive downfield throws, including an 87-yard touch-down pass to Sheperd that was a result of Garman mak-ing a 35-yard throw across his body to hit Sheperd going the other direction.

He opened up the play-book, reminded OSU fans what a true Air Raid system looks like and walked off the field as the star of the day after going 16-of-26 for 244 yards and two touchdowns.

The Cowboys won, 40-23. “That’s what we expected

out of him, but I don’t think we expected all that,” She-

Sheperd emerges in win against Missouri StateTim

Ahrens@ahrens_tim

TREVOR GREER/O’COLLYBrandon Sheperd caught four passes for 131 yards against Missouri State on Saturday.

As the questions kept coming, Brandon Sheperd just smiled and shook his head.

Reporters finally had a chance to see Cowboys quarterback Daxx Garman in action, and his 87-yard touchdown pass to She-perd in the second quarter was the highlight.

“Awesome play. Com-ing over the middle, he double-moved him, it was a corner post and did a real good job on his route,” offensive coordi-nator Mike Yurcich said. “That ball came from a different launching point than it normally does, it usually comes from the pocket. (Garman) was on the run, threw it back.”

Garman threw the ball across his body as he rolled to the right, hit-ting Sheperd in stride 35 yards downfield. After the game, Sheperd heard sev-eral questions regarding whether he was surprised Garman made that throw.

“No,” Sheperd said.

Time and again, dif-ferent reporters asked Sheperd the same ques-tion. And he had the same answer.

“No. The entire time, Daxx has been like that. I’m not surprised at all,” Sheperd said. “I knew that Daxx was gonna come in and do his thing, and it really motivated us to just go out and execute a little bit more.”

Sheperd finished his day with four receptions for 131 yards and a touch-down, the second-longest completion in OSU’s history.

Only two of those pass-es he caught came from Garman, but he might have plenty more time to work with Sheperd going forward. Oklahoma State’s starting QB, J.W. Walsh’s injury is unknown, and there’s a possibility he could miss significant playing time.

That doesn’t worry She-perd at all.

“Daxx, that’s one person I’m not worried about throwing the ball,” She-perd said. “Wherever he throws the ball is the right place, and we gotta go get it. That’s how most of our

receiving corps feels.”Sheperd came into

the season with hopes of becoming one of OSU’s top receivers. With his athletic abilities and Gar-man’s arm, Sheperd could

do just that. Saturday’s game against Missouri State was a step in the right direction, but he believes he has to do more going forward.

“I should have made a

couple more catches that I didn’t,” Sheperd said. “I should’ve spinned back on the pass interference, but really, I just gotta come out and be better for next week.

“It’s something I expect, because that’s what my teammates expect. I gotta live up to my expecta-tions.”

OSU sets record against Bears with three blocked kicks

RACHAEL MALTBY/O’COLLYOklahoma State became the second team to block an extra point, a punt and a field goal in the same game.

BLOCK PARTY

Acceleration, teamwork and drive led to a record-setting game for Oklahoma State.

In OSU’s 40-23 win over Missouri State, the Cowboys blocked a punt, extra point attempt and a field goal attempt. They became the second team to do so, with Oregon State also achieving the trifecta against USC in 1996.

The three blocked kicks

were an OSU record.“I think we have a good

group of players that under-stand how to accelerate and take the ball off of the foot,” OSU coach Mike Gundy said.

“The time from the snap to the contact on the punter’s foot was slower than what we see in (the Big 12), but we still felt like we got some good angles and understand blocking a punt.”

In the first quarter, safety Jordan Sterns charged forward, blocking an MSU punt before picking up the loose ball himself and re-turning it to the 21 yard line.

“It was just like practice,” Sterns said. “I came free. It was easy. Put my hands where they needed to be, didn’t leave my feet and I got the blocked punt.”

Though Sterns’ return set up OSU’s first touchdown, he wished he could have finished the job.

“I was a little upset,” he said. “I kind of lost my bal-ance going backwards, but by that time, somebody was already running towards the ball. I was a little upset I didn’t score, but the blocked punt is cool.”

When the Bears scored a touchdown on their next

series, defensive tackle James Castleman prevented MSU from picking up an extra point. The senior blocked the PAT attempt, his third-career blocked kick and his second-career blocked PAT.

“I wouldn’t have been able to get a hand on it if it wasn’t for the rest of the team,” Castleman said. “I had Ofa Hautau right next to me and then Jimmy Bean next to him. Jimmy got a push on the tackle, which got a push on the guard, which helped me swim the center and get through there as well.”

Early in the second quarter, with the Cowboys

up 17-6, MSU drove down the field, threatening to cut the deficit, but a sack and an incomplete pass forced the Bears to settle for a field goal.

However, Hautau, a de-fensive tackle, wouldn’t even let them have that much, getting a hand on the ball to prevent the field goal.

“Coach (Glenn) Spen-cer always tells us that we need to go hard every play, especially on those extra points and field goal blocks,” Sterns said. “One point can change a game, three points can change a game, and a blocked punt can change a

game. “He always tells us to

go hard at all phases of the game. It was special today.”

OSU breaks ground on new business building

TREVOR GREER/O’COLLYKen Eastman speaks about Spears’ historical significance at a news conference Friday.

STAFF REPORTS

A new era for the Spears School of Business is on the way.

Oklahoma State Uni-versity broke ground on a new business building Friday near the former site of Hanner Hall.

Full construction of the building will begin in 2015 and is expected to be completed by summer 2017.

The current business building has housed the school since 1966.

“This new building is a major step in the pro-cess of transforming our campus,” OSU President Burns Hargis said in a press release. “As a Spears School graduate myself, I

look forward to seeing all that will be accomplished because of it. And this would not be possible without the many do-nors who recognized the need for this facility and stepped up to provide the necessary funding.”

The new building, which has received more than half of its designated $63 million funding from more than 200 donors, will focus on the idea of interactivity.

The building will feature formal common areas such as a living room and the ConocoPhillips Student Lounge, and will also have informal meet-ing spaces with movable furniture.

This is intended to

replicate the modern workplace and emphasize hands-on learning and working in small groups.

It will also unite the Spears School, which is using four buildings across the OSU campus.

The new building will carry on the Georgian architecture tradition of the OSU campus. Its most distinguishable features will be dormers and gables as seen on other campus buildings.

The building, which was designed by Elliot + Associates Architects of Oklahoma City, will also be the eastern bookend of the university’s main quad and will have outdoor room for game days and other events.

“We are very excited to be moving forward on the new home of the Spears School of Business,” said Ken Eastman, dean of the

Spears School. “The building will

provide a dynamic educa-tional environment, which allows us to fully embrace

the opportunities that our next 100 years will bring.”

Paddle company opens at Boomer Lake

NATALIE PRICE/O’COLLYOSU students Hannah Sanders and Jeremy Freeman paddle at Boomer Lake.

NataliePrice

@nprice42

Boomer Lake is the place to exercise, play Frisbee golf and take romantic walks at sunset. But a new business moved into the area and added two more activities to the list: paddle boarding and kayaking.

Some may have noticed the white trailer sitting in the parking lot at the lake. This trailer is a paddle sports rental business known as White Rock Paddle Co.

The company started four years ago on White

Rock Lake in Dallas. Owner Amy Ebert is a Stillwater native and an OSU alumna.

“Amy wanted to bring this company back to her hometown,” said Stepha-nie Chesser, who is a manger at both the Dallas and Stillwater locations.

The Stillwater location opened Labor Day week-end and includes activities for all ages.

The company is sea-sonal because of weather, but they hope to stay in Stillwater until early No-vember then return during spring break.

“Stillwater has been great,” Chessar said. “I love the community and I love this lake.”

White Rock has eight stand-up paddleboards, five single kayaks, five tandem kayaks, which seat two people, and one canoe that seats up to three people. You can rent the equipment at Boomer Lake or reserve it at www.whiterockpaddle.com.

The rates start at $14.99 per hour for a single kayak and $19.99 per hour for the tandem kayaks and paddleboards. The rental also includes a paddle and a lifejacket.

White Rock Paddle Co. is located at Boomer Lake in the parking lot on the corner of North Washing-ton and Lakeview Road. Hours of operation are Thursday through Sunday

from 9 a.m. to sundown. Students can bring a

campus ID for a 10 per-cent discount.

OSU AEROSPACE DESIGNStudents in OSU’s aerospace program worked many 12-hour days to design and construct planes for the competition.

Red Bull awards tickets to OSU studentsNataliePrice

@nprice42

OSU AEROSPACE DESIGNOne of OSU Aerospace Design’s unmanned planes takes flight.

Red Bull can provide more than a caffeine high.

Students in the Oklaho-ma State Aerospace pro-gram had the opportunity to attend The Red Bull Air Race World Champion-ship in Fort Worth, Texas, this past weekend.

Red Bull gave the tick-ets to about 20 students after they won Speedfest, an annual aerospace com-petition.

The Red Bull Air Race is composed of 12 pilots competing in eight races across the world for the title of the 2014 Red Bull Air Race World Cham-pion.

Two of the eight races are in the United States — one in Forth Worth and the other in Las Vegas.

“The objective is to navigate an aerial race-track featuring air-filled pylons in the fastest pos-sible time, incurring as few penalties as possible,” according to the race’s of-ficial website.

These pilots have trav-eled to Abu Dhabi, Croa-tia, Malaysia, Poland, and the United Kingdom and now to the United States.

“The air races are thrill-ing to watch and will for sure turn anyone into an aviation enthusiast,” said Kevin Hayes, a recent me-chanical engineering grad and team captain of the winning Speedfest team.

The tickets to the Red Bull Air Race did not come easy.

Speedfest was a vigor-ous competition requiring many hours of prepara-tion.

“Speedfest is an excit-ing, high-speed aircraft design competition, which is intended to foster en-thusiasm for aviation and unmanned aircraft design,” according to the competi-tion’s website.

The teams have to de-sign and build an aircraft that can accomplish two missions during the com-petition.

The first mission required the aircraft to climb as high as possible within 10 seconds and release an object from the plane.

For the second mission, the aircraft had to com-plete as many figure-8 laps as possible on a 600-foot course within a certain timeframe.

The winning team, Black Magic, spent end-less hours preparing for this competition.

“We began the concep-tual design of our plane at the beginning of the spring semester,” Hayes said.

“We moved to the de-tailed design phase at the end of January, and then in mid February we were given approval to begin construction.

“Every day we would arrive at the lab around noon and work until 1 a.m. or later.”

The team built a 3.9-pound aircraft that

was 31.2 inches long. It completed the first mission and was able to complete 29 flags for the figure-8’s during the second mission. The team’s final score was 29, beat-ing the other team by two points.

“Working on the planes for Speedfest was excit-ing, hands-on and very fast paced,” Hayes said. “Though the project was very challenging, we felt a great sense of accomplish-ment at its completion.”

Saturday’s Puzzle SolvedBy Brock Wilson 9/8/14

Qbs: daxx garman proved saturday that he can lead osu.

From Page 2

perd said. “He surprised a lot of people.”

And now, controversy reigns once more.

Gundy said Walsh is still the starter if healthy. But in typical Gundy code, he also said Garman needs to play in games.

The reason for that?The Cowboys all but

admit they are better with Garman.

“When J-Dub is in the game, our mentality is to get open when we can, and when we see him run, go and knock somebody’s head

off,” Sheperd said. “When Daxx is in the game, we’re thinking run and get open, and if you’re not wide open, give him a little bit, and he’ll get you the ball no matter what.”

Garman was by no means perfect. Several passes were underthrown, and he made multiple bad reads. Re-member, though, this was Garman’s first game action since 2009.

“There were some throws I’d like to have back,” Gundy said. “A couple of throws that I know that he could make a better throw because I’ve seen him do it.

“The first time you play in a game at this level, it’s dif-ferent because you really can never manufacture the speed and the tempo. So I thought he did fine.”

Saturday’s aftermath leaves Gundy with no easy answer.

If Walsh is healthy, it woud be almost unfair to compeltely yank his job. But that would neglect Garman’s ability.

Terrible as it may sound, the best case for Gundy might be that Walsh ends up missing significant time and Garman can assume the role of top dog.

Whatever happens, it won’t be any kind of loop the Cowboys haven’t seen before.

“It’s pretty crazy,” Sheperd said. “We keep putting (quarterbacks) out there and they keep performing.

“We base our program off not having fear and hav-ing the quarterback be the toughest guy on the field. When Daxx came in, there was literally no worries at all.”
