Mike Gundy’s mullet is no more.

That was arguably the biggest news item to come out of Big 12 Media Days, which maybe tells you a thing or two about how uninteresting the event has been.

Check out the Oklahoma State coach’s new look below:

So why did Gundy cut his infamous mullet?

“If that’s the worst question I get today that’s not bad at all,” Gundy said when asked the question at the event. “Honestly, when I went in to Kathy — Kathy, she’s cut my hair for 20 years now — and I love her company, but I said I’ve got a lot of things going on, so let’s try and cut my hair to where I don’t have to cut it until the season’s over. And she finally agreed to do it. And so we did it.

“I didn’t really think it would be a big deal anymore. But I do get a lot of questions about it. But we’ve had a lot of fun with it. And I’m hoping that it will still grow really fast and get back by the end of the season.”

Based on that response, we may not have seen the last of the mullet in Stillwater.
