In the wake of a school shooting in Parkland, Florida, that left 17 dead, Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy is willing to do whatever it takes to prevent a similar event in Stillwater.

Gundy addressed the Stillwater Public Schools Board of Education on Wednesday, according to a video provided by Garrett Baker. Although most were there to discuss the state's budget and an impending teacher strike, Gundy, whose two youngest sons are in the school system, wanted to talk about school safety, going so far as to offer to pay for it.

"I'll do whatever it takes to get it started," Gundy said in the video. "I know these things take time. I don't think we have time. I'm saying, like, fast. Like, two weeks. Like, yesterday."

"I would like to see this put in place, and until we can factor in a budget for the next year, I'm willing to foot the bill for the rest of the school year if we can protect our kids. ... That's how important the little ones are to me."
