Half of the 16-man roster is made up of seniors and graduate transfers. There is only one true freshman on the team this season, and he wears the familiar Sooner jersey No. 24.
Jamal Bieniemy won’t be mistaken for Buddy Hield, the last Oklahoma player to wear that jersey number, not at first, anyway. But Lon Kruger and his coaching staff are expecting good things from the Houston area native, just as they did when the player who acquired the nickname “Buddy Buckets” arrived in Norman back in 2012.
