The Cowboys' roster will look almost entirely different next season, and they could miss their former stars.
Oklahoma State lost important pieces this offseason, but the team will miss some players more than others.
During the weeks-long coaching search, the transfer portal opened, and suddenly, OSU’s roster was barren. OSU almost instantly lost four starters: Brandon Garrison, Javon Small, Quion Williams and Eric Dailey Jr. The Cowboys also lost another starter in John-Michael Wright, who was in his final year of eligibility, and a few other role players.
Last season, Garrison burst onto the scene in the Big 12 as the Cowboys’ rim protector. He averaged 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks throughout the year. Meanwhile, Dailey was a skilled forward who added 9.3 points and 4.8 rebounds per game. While OSU’s scoring could suffer because of his loss, the Big 12 will not get a break from Small, who transferred to West Virginia this offseason. Just as OSU had to with Avery Anderson III last season, Small could be making his return to Stillwater next year and causing some problems for the Cowboys.
