OSU Basketball: Cowboys Lose Lone 2025 Commit

Steve Lutz is back to square one in recruiting his 2025 class.

Carlsheon Young announced on Monday that he decommitted from Oklahoma State and re-opened his recruitment. He had committed to OSU way back in October when Mike Boynton was still leading the Cowboys but recently told PFB he was still following through with that commitment. Young was the first and only commit the Pokes had for the 2025 class so far. Boynton had jumped on Young early as the first major program to offer the in-state prospect.

I have decided to take back my verbal commitment to OSU and reopen my recruitment 100 percent!! Thank you to the coaches that recruited me I feel this is what’s best for me due to coaching change!!
