"I Won Oklahoma 77 Out of 77 — Second Was Ronald Reagan" - Trump Boasts at NCAA Champions White House Visit
President Trump welcomed the Oklahoma State Cowboys to the White House to honor their 12th national title — and delivered the kind of ceremony that only Trump can pull off.
He opened by acknowledging the press in the back of the room — telling the Cowboys they would be treated better by the media than he is — before pivoting to a statistic he clearly wanted on the record. He won Oklahoma 77 out of 77 counties. Every single one. And the only other president to achieve something like that in Oklahoma, he noted with visible pride, was Ronald Reagan. For Trump, the comparison to Reagan was not incidental — it was the point. He is proud of it. He wants you to know it. And he found a way to work it into a college golf team's White House ceremony.
The substance of the celebration was genuinely warm. Trump praised head coach Alan Bratton as unbelievable and highlighted the team's consistency, grit, and precision throughout a dominant season that culminated in the Cowboys securing their 12th national title. He called Oklahoma State a great school and a great sports school — one that sits at the very top of college athletics. The team, he said, has made Oklahoma State very proud.
He closed the way Trump closes almost everything — with an offer. He wants to play golf with the Cowboys. He admitted it is a match he is not looking forward to, acknowledging their obvious advantage. But he pointed them toward what he called a special place on the Potomac River and told them to let him know whenever they are around. It was classic Trump — self-deprecating in exactly the right moment and generous in exactly the right way.
