The Cowboys' coach gave some more insight into the sudden QR code controversy.
On Saturday, just an hour before OSU kicked off its season, the team announced that the NCAA blocked it from placing QR codes leading to the general team fund on helmets. After the Cowboys’ 44-20 win against South Dakota State, OSU coach Mike Gundy said he learned about the NCAA’s ruling around Tuesday.
Although OSU has run into issues with the NCAA in the past, potentially suspending players for an NIL initiative seems a bit extreme. Still, the Cowboys were wise and chose not to take any chances. “All we’re trying to do is the most we can do to maximize our players’ opportunities with fans across the world that don’t have a chance to be involved if they’re not local,” Gundy said.
