Just before the final horn, seniors C.J. Cole and Daniel Harper pulled off their crimson warm-ups and checked into the game at the Lloyd Noble Center for the final time. 

The senior duo only played the final two seconds of the Sooners' closely contested match against the Horned Frogs, but Cole and Harper received the opportunity to play through the buzzer in OU's 73-68 victory against TCU.

After the game, Kruger spoke highly of Cole and Harper and their contributions to the program.

"Daniel (Harper) and C.J. (Cole) have been hugely important to the program," Kruger said. "Everyday, they're out making their teammates better and doing what they can to challenge everyday in practice and contribute any way possible."

Prior to tip, Cole, Harper and senior guard Jordan Woodard were honored at midcourt for Senior Day. The three were given commemorative jerseys and an ovation by the home crowd. 

Cole will finish as a two-time First Team Academic All-Big 12 selection while Harper, named to the Second Team Academic All-Big 12 this season, will graduate in sports management.
