Oklahoma State hasnât played a down of its 2017 season, but itâs already ahead of the game with Mike Gundy choosing to let his magnificent mullet continue to grow and flourish into the offseason.
The hairstyle -- named perfectly by the coach himself as the âArkansas Waterfallâ -- added a fun wrinkle to a wild Oklahoma State season in 2016. Gundy nearly had to cut it in November because of bet with his son regarding an upcoming test. Thankfully for us, Gundyâs son scored an 88 and not a 91, allowing the Arkansas Waterfall to continue its dominance of the college football hairstyling scene.
Mike Gundy said if his son got a 91 or above on a recent test, he would think about cutting the mullet. His son got an 88.

ESPNâs Barry Melrose knows a thing or two about good hair, and Scott Van Pelt set him up to interview Gundy on SportsCenter late Tuesday night. There, speaking man-to-man and flow-to-flow, Gundy shared the secret to keeping his hair looking great.
âWell itâs a little bit of butch wax, and youâre right, youâve got gotta have good genes, youâve gotta have great hair and youâve got to make sure you have the right product,â Gundy said. âAnd as you know when thereâs a lot of pressure when you have hair like this. Youâve got to make sure it looks right.â
