STILLWATER – Oklahoma State head coach Steve Lutz announced Friday the signing of Tyson Pogi, a four-star guard from Southmoore High School in Moore, Okla.
The 6-foot-1 Pogi is Oklahoma's top-rated high school prospect in the Class of 2027, according to 247Sports, and one of its most prolific scorers. He averaged 27.7 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.1 assists as a junior last season, leading Southmoore to its first Class 6A state tournament appearance in six years.
Pogi committed to the Cowboys on May 1 and has since seen his recruiting stock soar following a strong summer with MOKAN Elite on Nike's EYBL grassroots circuit.
The son of former OSU football quarterback Aso Pogi, Tyson brings a similar mentality to the basketball court.
"Tyson is a really talented guard with a tremendous feel for the game," Lutz said. "He can score at all three levels, but what really stands out is his basketball IQ and his ability to make everyone around him better. We loved what we saw from him early in the recruiting process, and he's continued to get better playing against some of the best competition in the country. He's got a bright future, and we're excited to keep one of Oklahoma's best players at home."
Pogi earned second-team Super 5 and first-team Big All-City honors from The Oklahoman last season and was named his district's Offensive Player of the Year. An efficient scorer, he shot 56% from the field, including 38% from three-point range, and made 87% of his free throws.
As a sophomore, Pogi averaged 22.0 points while helping the SaberCats to a 20-6 record. He set a school single-game scoring record with 41 points against Putnam City on Dec. 3, 2024.
Pogi's scoring ability has also translated to the national stage. He averaged 13.9 points and shot 42% from three-point range over 21 games on Nike's EYBL circuit during the summer of 2026. He helped MOKAN Elite advance to the Nike Peach Jam quarterfinals, connecting on 21 of 51 three-point attempts (.412) over six games at the prestigious event.
Pogi will tip off his senior season at Southmoore next month and join the Cowboys for the 2027-28 school year.
