Oklahoma State fired head coach Mike Gundy after 21 seasons.

The reports come one day after Gundy confirmed that he had zero interest in 2025 being his final year in Stillwater. '100 percent,' he said on Monday.

The Cowboys sport a 1-2 record this season and have lost 11 of the past 12 games dating back to the 2024 campaign.

Gundy, who is owed $15 million, is the winningest coach in Oklahoma State history.

He coached the Cowboys to 18 straight winning seasons and bowl appearances before the streak was broken last year.

Gundy posted eight 10-win seasons as a coach at Oklahoma State, which finished ranked in the top 15 five times during his tenure.

He was 170-90 all-time, including 12-6 in bowls at his alma mater, where he was OSU's starting quarterback and assistant head coach before being hired. With Gundy at quarterback, the Cowboys had two 10-win seasons.

Gundy, 58, is famous in part for his press conference tirade 18 years ago in which he said, 'I'm a man, I'm 40.'

Oklahoma State will host Baylor (2-2, 0-1 Big 12) in its conference opener on Saturday.
