Son of Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy to play QB for Emporia State

EMPORIA, Kan. ( KSNT ) – With MIAA career touchdown leader Braden Gleason out of eligibility , there will be a quarterback competition for Emporia State football in the 2024 season.

Among those attempting to make their case is Gunnar Gundy, son of long-term Oklahoma State head football coach Mike Gundy.

Gunnar played three seasons under his father with the Cowboys. He redshirted as a freshman, playing in four games each of the next two seasons.

Gunnar completed 55% of his passes at Oklahoma State, throwing four touchdowns and four interceptions. He added a rushing score in the Cowboys’ 31-23 bowl game win over Texas A&M.

Following the 2023 season, Gunnar entered the transfer portal and chose to play at Ohio. After a few days on campus, he re-entered the transfer portal and wound up at Emporia State.

Gunnar is expected to compete with fellow transfer Daron Bryden and long-time backup Chase Ricke for the starting quarterback spot with the Hornets.
