It’s official. Joe Castiglione got his man. Porter Moser is the next men’s Oklahoma basketball coach.

The OU athletic director on Saturday announced the hiring of the 52-year-old Moser, the man behind Loyola of Chicago’s magical NCAA Tournament runs of recent seasons. Moser becomes the 14th head basketball coach at Oklahoma.

Moser has become one of the hottest names among mid-major head coaches.
