“Mark Morgan is a winner. He is strong, tough, smart and makes everyone around him better,” said OU head coach Andy Carrier. “He does many things that win games that do not always show up in the statistics. He does shoot the three well too, but it is all of the others things that make him special. We are thrilled to have him join us.”
