Originally published at: Hoops Portal Tracker: Keep Up with Oklahoma State’s Moves in the Transfer Portal
The portal officially opens April 7.
Sure seems like a younger PG would be helpful and then an Andre Williams type to defend the paint and clean the glass. And wish HCSL would use his guards to rebound more (can’t get out fast and create havoc if you can’t rebound).

Agree on a pg, and I think Clary with his experience would be a great keep. Need some post presence too, combination of Mille, Ahmed, and Ragland to go with a portal addition or two.
Is that correct? Auburn just beat Tulsa for the NIT? Is it a moral victory that when healthy, oSu beat Auburn this season?
Any takers?
oSu
It’s a moral victory on the same level as me harboring some personal satisfaction that one time back in the 80’s I successfully dished a no-look pass to a guy flashing down the post in the Colvin center during a game with the really good dudes on the really good dude court where occasionally Corey Williams and Darwyn Alexander played. They weren’t there that day but they had been seen there.
Victory!
Sorta need, for better or worse, to keep those last 7 for continuity. Three frosh incoming (hope they arrive in summer) and now 5 to fill.
Awwww drat… never expected Jennings to leave.
oSu
Yeah I was hoping Jennings would stay.
BTW, I like the picture of Lutz that accompanies this article. He’s checking off the players still here and the ones gone. He’s like…”yeah that one’s gonna leave a mark”.
Vukovic gone too? Basically no continuity - start from scratch.
The portal is just awesome isn’t it.
Which is why I can’t get behind the “Lutz has improved the record both years” logic. He’s going to have to figure out how to establish the culture and get the team functioning in one season. He can’t wait to make adjustments in the offseason. Adjustments need to be made midseason. Potential has to be realized within months, not seasons. It’s a new world.
I don’t see it as a moral victory anymore, what I see is that Auburn improved over the season and we did not.
