Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy apologized on social media Tuesday, a day after he lashed out at his team’s critics.

Gundy is in unfamiliar territory. He has 169 wins in 20 seasons at Oklahoma State, including 18 straight bowl appearances. His team was among the favorites to contend for the Big 12 title this season, but the Cowboys are alone in last place heading into Saturday’s game at TCU. The Cowboys (3-6, 0-6) have lost six in a row and must win out to avoid a losing regular season.

A frustrated Gundy let loose on naysayers during his weekly media session on Monday.

“In most cases, the people that are negative and voicing their opinion are the same ones that can’t pay their own bills,” Gundy said. “They’re not taking care of themselves. They’re not taking care of their own family. They’re not taking care of their own job. But they have an obligation to speak out and complain about others because it makes them feel better.
