OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The University of Oklahoma’s Board of Regents will vote this week on the terms of new Sooners basketball coach Lon Kruger’s contract.
Kruger’s compensation is listed among the items up for consideration at the regents meeting Thursday in Norman.
The university has withheld details of the deal for Kruger, who reportedly doubled his salary to about $2.2 million annually when he was hired away from UNLV by Oklahoma on April 1.
The agenda lists proposed salaries of $175,000 per year for newly hired assistants Lew Hill, Steve Henson and Chris Crutchfield but the school is not disclosing Kruger’s salary before the meeting.
The university rejected an open records request for details of Kruger’s contract, saying that he is “not yet a formal employee” though he has been overseeing practices, recruiting players and drumming up support among students and other fans.
