North Texas football coach Eric Morris is set to join Oklahoma State after the 2025 season to replace Mike Gundy, OSU announced Tuesday afternoon. The news comes after months of searching after Gundy's firing.

Cowboy fans are excited to see a fresh, successful face leading a recently underwhelming team. The 40-year-old Morris has led the Mean Green to a 10-1 season, a spot in the Top 25 and even a possible postseason appearance.
