NORMAN, Okla. (AP) – Oklahoma is making a fresh start this season.
After the program’s first back-to-back losing seasons since 1967, turnaround wizard Lon Kruger has been put in charge and asked to restore the winning tradition that had the Sooners playing in the NCAA regional finals just three years ago.
Jeff Capel was fired after last season, and the program is in hot water with the NCAA for its second set of major rules violations in five years.
Nearly the whole roster is back. Guard Cade Davis, who led the team in scoring and tied for the team lead in rebounds, is the only starter who’s gone and Kruger has brought in junior college transfers Sam Grooms and Casey Arent as part of his first recruiting class.
