Mike Gundy's 'I'm a man, I'm 40' rant at Oklahoma State [FULL] | ESPN Archives

[@MrCveedub]

I remember when this happened in 2007 and this being added to the old "crazy coach meltdown" pile. But watching it now? Gundy is right and good for him for sticking up for his players and holding the reporter to account.

[@camd1518]

I was thinking the same thing. To me this was always a "Coaches go wild" thing that was memed but as i have gotten older, a lot older. Watching this whole thing hits me in a way I didn't ever imagine. He was right guys.

But now I appreciate and respect this coach and wish we had more vocal people like this especially today.

Just used this quote against my dad but used my age instead and he broke down laughing

[@brianj4090]

It's nice to see the context. I'm 40! Is a funny line but in context it's powerful and spot on. A coach that stood up for me like that would get a lot of heart and loyalty in return. Good job coach

The original “fake news” crusader

[@slovak4life1991]

He knew which reporter it was and stared at him the whole rant. Amazing.

“This was brought to me by a mother… of children.” Literally sounds like a quote from a Will Farrell movie 🤣

[@CSprizzle]

I come back to this video every year

[@r0b0gam3r9]

I remember this. Always comeback to listen again. I understand what's he saying. You don't want anyone to hurt you child mentally or physically. You want to protect them from this cruel world.

KZbin has a funny way of making this pop up on my recommended right after the Mike Gundy controversy lmao

“You know what it’s okay, there supposed to be mature adults… but there really not” nothing could be more true about the problems of our world

My dad always said that you're not a man until you're 40. I'm 34, and I think I agree with him. EDIT: Revisited 3 years later @ 37-yrs old. Still not a man...

[@JackAubreyy]

How about now?

[@kidzbop38isstraightfire92]

@JackAubreyy I'm just about to turn 38, so only 2 more years 😂

[@JoshuaJDarcy]

Wow that was amazing hats off to Oklahoma State University coach for standing up for what's right.

and visors

[@ikGREENY]

You know this man was fuming inside waiting for this press conference. Respect to him for sticking up for his players.

[@JakeRanney]

He's right, you know

[@MrSpeed-lt8gr]

Coach Gundy stood up for his player in a way a lot of coaches would not. That is being a real man.

[@leetraviusmckay2919]

He's letting the man know who he's talking about he loves and is sticking up for his players

[@embee9936]

It was a woman, Jenni Carlson

[@consadosambora5347]

He was ahead of the times talking about the media.

I just turned 40 today and came here immediately 🙂
