Oklahoma coach Lon Kruger is calling it a career. The 68-year-old has decided to retire after 45 years in coaching. Kruger led the Sooners to seven NCAA Tournament appearances in 10 seasons. He’s also one of three coaches in history to take five different schools to the NCAA tournament. Kruger began as an assistant at Pittsburg State in 1976.
