It worked nicely.

If there is anything else I can provide to help you guys get your gmail account working with your OOTP league let me know.

Oh, you aren't technically using gmail for smtp. You are using your Cox local ISP for the smtp relay piece. That is the part that will not work with gmail (which the original user was asking about). In order to use gmail for that part you need to be able to use SMTP over SSL, which OOTP does not support.
