A thrilling chapter comes to an end for the Loyola-Chicago Ramblers. Moser led the team to the 2018 Final Four and in the 2021 tournament, took the Ramblers to the Sweet 16.
Moser has been the Loyola-Chicago head coach since 2011, winning 189 games over that span. He's won three Missouri Valley Conference regular season championships and two conference tournament championships.

For Oklahoma, they're hoping Moser can bring some of that winning to Norman. The Sooners are replacing the Len Kruger, who retired after the 2021 NCAA Tournament.
The Sooners last reached the Final Four IN 2016 and have yet to make it to the second weekend of the tournament since. The Sooners' last conference championship in the regular season was 2005. The last Big 12 Tournament Championship came in 2003.
