Roger Kish was named Oklahoma’s 15th head wrestling coach on May 2, 2023, and will enter his fourth season at the helm in 2026-27. Building on the program’s momentum in year three, the Sooners capped the regular season with a pair of signature top-15 wins, including a 23-18 home victory over No. 13 Northern Iowa and a marquee comeback win over No. 12 Rutgers at Jersey Mike’s Arena in Piscataway, N.J. Oklahoma rallied from a 14-6 deficit to secure a 19-14 victory, marking the program’s highest-ranked dual win since 2015. The Sooners finished the season with 10 dual victories — the most under Kish and the program’s highest total since 2019. OU also sent seven wrestlers to the NCAA Championships, marking the program’s highest qualifier total since 2023. In year two under Kish’s leadership, the Sooners showed significant improvement, finishing the regular season with an 8-4 dual record. Their 4-4 mark in conference competition also represented the program’s first .500 or better finish in Big 12 action since 2019. Additionally, five Sooners qualified for the NCAA Championships during the 2024–25 season, matching the highest total in the Kish era at OU. Kish made an immediate impact in his debut season (2023-24), leading the Sooners to a 23rd-place finish at the NCAA Championships-their highest in eight years. He also guided Stephen Buchanan to All-American honors for the third time in his career. Buchanan compiled a dominant 27-3 record and placed third nationally at 197 pounds, marking Oklahoma’s top individual NCAA finish in eight seasons. https://soonersports.com/sports/wrestling/roster/coaches/roger-kish/1338 Huge thank you to our sponsors.

Pilar joins me back on the podcast after surviving a restaurant fire, opening a second location and continuing to grow Taco Empires catering business. "Taco Empire was built on a simple idea: serve authentic Mexican food with exceptional quality, genuine hospitality, and a passion for bringing people together. What started as a single food truck has grown into a family-owned business proudly serving Oklahoma through two restaurant locations and our catering food truck. Every step of our journey has been fueled by hard work, resilience, and the incredible support of our community. Inspired by the flavors of Mexico and made with fresh ingredients, every meal reflects our commitment to quality. Our values—quality, cleanliness, service, speed, integrity, respect, and teamwork—guide everything we do." https://tacoempireokc.com/ Huge thank you to our sponsors.
