CRIMINAL: NOT Including Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker In RETURNING Top 10's Is Absolute MADNESS!!!

·25 min·1 clip

Drew Mestemaker leads the country with 4,379 passing yards, 34 touchdowns, and a 68.9% completion rate.

1. Locked On Oklahoma State centers on Cody Stovall's reaction to Danny Connell's returning quarterbacks list and the exclusion of Drew Mestemaker. 2. Cody Stovall hosts the show, and his role is to break down Oklahoma State football, women's basketball, baseball, and softball for Cowboy and Cowgirl fans. 3. The episode asks why Drew Mestemaker is not on Connell's top 10 when Oklahoma State production says he should be. 4. Cody Stovall says Mestemaker was one of the top quarterbacks in the country and points to preseason watch lists for the Heisman Trophy and the Davey O'Brien Award. 5. He reads Connell's list, which includes Arch Manning, Julian Sayin, Darian Mensah, Dante Moore, C.J. Carr, Josh Hoover, Jaden Maiava, Brendan Sorsby, Sam Leavitt, and Trinidad Chambliss. 6. Stovall argues that the list looks more like a helmet-sticker exercise than a film-based ranking. 7. He says Mestemaker posted 4,379 passing yards, 34 touchdowns, and a 68.9% completion percentage. 8. He compares those numbers with Darian Mensah's 3,973 passing yards and 34 touchdowns and Trinidad Chambliss' 3,930 passing yards and 22 passing touchdowns plus 527 rushing yards. 9. He also cites Julian Sayin's 3,610 passing yards and 32 touchdowns, Ty Simpson's 3,567 yards and 28 touchdowns, and Dante Moore's 3,565 yards and 30 touchdowns. 10. The argument extends to Jaden Maiava, Josh Hoover, and Arch Manning, which Stovall says makes Mestemaker's omission even harder to justify. 11. Stovall says Brendan Sorsby is not better than Mestemaker and compares Sorsby to Baron Morton. 12. He says Trinidad Chambliss is a "baller" and a "gamer" but still places Mestemaker ahead of him. 13. He argues that Arch Manning's late-season stretch cannot fully explain a jump to number one on Connell's list. 14. Julian Sayin's ranking is linked to Jeremiah Smith, whom Stovall calls possibly the number one player at any position in the country. 15. Stovall says he could understand Mestemaker at 10th if the concern were how he would translate from North Texas to the Big 12. 16. He then says leaving Mestemaker off the list entirely is "absolute insanity" and not a defensible decision. 17. The episode shifts into a talkative, opinion-driven solo format with sponsor reads, rapid transitions, and repeated direct address to listeners. 18. Cody Stovall uses a confrontational but conversational tone, mixing statistical lists, rhetorical questions, and local program advocacy. 19. Oklahoma State fans tracking football rankings and Big 12 identity debates. 20. Listeners wanting a quiet, numbers-light recap of one topic.
