The Cowboys still have areas to improve to reach their goals next season.
This offseason, OSU men’s basketball has had an abundance of changes. After firing seven-year coach Mike Boynton and hiring Steve Lutz, the Cowboys’ roster has undergone dramatic differences.
In the transfer portal, OSU has signed numerous potential contributors next season, including NCAA steals leader Arturo Dean and Brandon Newman, who followed Lutz from Western Kentucky. However, those players have taken the spots of outgoing Cowboys. OSU’s mass exodus began after Boynton’s firing, with star freshman Brandon Garrison going to Kentucky, leading scorer Javon Small going to West Virginia and freshman forward Eric Dailey Jr. signing with UCLA. With a few other role players heading elsewhere this offseason, continuity will be nearly nonexistent for OSU in 2024-25. The Cowboys will still have some returning players, including Bryce Thompson, who is going into his fourth season as a Cowboy.
Although OSU is not projected to be in the tournament, nine of the Big 12’s 16 teams are in the field. That does not meet the SEC’s 10 members, but OSU’s conference does include the top overall seed in Kansas and another No. 1 seed in Houston. While making the NCAA Tournament is the Cowboys’ goal for next season, competing in the Big 12 and finishing with a winning record would be steps in the right direction for a team that has been near the bottom of the Big 12 for much of the past decade.Ivan is a sports media student at Oklahoma State University.
