Oklahoma to formally introduce Kruger as coach

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) � Oklahoma plans to formally introduce Lon Kruger as the Sooners' new basketball coach.

Oklahoma athletic department spokesman Mike Houck says Kruger will be introduced at a news conference at 2:30 p.m. Monday at McCasland Field House on the university's campus in Norman.

The event will be open to the public.

The 58-year-old Kruger confirmed late Friday he was leaving UNLV after seven seasons to come to Oklahoma. He's also coached at Pan American, Kansas State, Florida and Illinois and had a stint with the NBA's Atlanta Hawks.

He will replace Jeff Capel, who was fired after five seasons.
