Ex-AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson and former Philadelphia Eagles executive Jake Rosenberg are helping OU basketball's programs navigate modern landscape.

The Oklahoma women's basketball team is looking to improve on its Sweet 16 appearance from the 2024-25 season this winter and in the years ahead. They took a step toward that over the weekend when five-star Class of 2026 forward Leelee Bell committed to play for coach Jenni Baranczyk and the Sooners.

State men's basketball recruiting class for 2026 has surged into the top five nationally after recent additions.

The Texas Longhorns, who finished tied atop the league standings last season with South Carolina, were voted to finish first in the SEC in 2025-2026. South Carolina, who lost in the finals to UConn, was picked to finished second. The Gamecocks were followed by LSU, Oklahoma, and the Tennessee Volunteers to round out the top five.

The Oklahoma State Cowboys travel to Dallas on Saturday for a 2 p.m. exhibition tipoff against the SMU Mustangs inside Moody Coliseum.

The Oklahoma State men's basketball team has a mostly new roster once again, entering Steve Lutz's second season as coach.

Jennie Baranczyk isn’t concerned about high expectations surrounding her program this season. The OU women’s basketball team comes into the season ranked sixth.
