STILLWATER — Welcome to Senior Day in the transfer portal era of college basketball.

Oklahoma State coach Steve Lutz’s first senior class includes eight players who will be honored when the Cowboys conclude the regular season at 2 p.m. Saturday against Cincinnati at Gallagher-Iba Arena.

With Lutz enduring a major roster makeover upon his hiring last spring, the senior class is almost exclusively made up of newcomers.

The eight seniors on the roster have combined to play 11 total seasons at OSU, with guard Bryce Thompson accounting for four of those. The other seven players are new to the program this season.

Here’s a look at the eight seniors on the Cowboy roster:
