Overview

  • Oklahoma State will start redshirt freshman Hauss Hejny against UT Martin on Thursday, with Zane Flores also slated to see snaps.
  • The staff intends to evaluate both quarterbacks in live action before settling on a long‑term direction at the position.
  • Hejny transferred from TCU after a redshirt year, appearing in four games without a pass attempt but flashing rushing ability.
  • His selection aligns with Meacham’s offensive vision and comes as the program turns over personnel following a 3-9 season with no returning QB snaps.
  • Flores profiles as more of a pocket passer, missed 2024 with an injury, received a medical hardship waiver, and has yet to throw a college pass.
