In 5 seasons, Moster has a 91-73 record at Oklahoma. He guided the Sooners to the NCAA Tournament last season. OU is 17-14 after Friday night’s loss to Arkansas in the SEC Tournament quarterfinals. Oklahoma boosted its Big Dance hopes by winning a pair of games in Nashville, but it’s unclear if it will be enough to make the Big Dance.
Moser, 57, has been a head coach since 2000 at Arkansas-Little Rock (2000-03), Illinois State (2003-07) and Loyola Chicago (2011-21). He took Loyola Chicago to the Final Four in 2018 and back to the Sweet 16 in 2021. He has a 384-315 record as a head coach.
