Oklahoma beats No, 15 Vanderbilt 92-91 to snap 9-game losing streak Yahoo Sports Canadasource
Depth on the defensive line is always a priority for Vanderbilt, and a familiar name will help add experience to that position in 2026.

Cane Ridge product after having recruited him twice in the past. Diatta told Vandy247 that he visited West End on Saturday; he previously visited Arkansas.Listed at 6-foot-5, 295 pounds, Diatta is an interior defensive lineman who played his first four seasons at Virginia before transferring to Oklahoma State last offseason.

Vanderbilt basketball at its best can look like a Final Four team.But those Commodores haven’t show up often enough this season. For every 35-point blowout of Kentucky, there was a 25-point loss to Arkansas. For every marquee victory over Alabama, a 16-point loss to a bubble team in Texas. And then there was the worst of them all — a 92-91 loss to Oklahoma (12-12, 2-9 SEC) on Feb. 7 at Memorial Gymnasium.source

The Commodores were defeated 92-91 on their home court by Oklahoma, a team that entered Saturday a league-worst 1-9 in SEC play. After three straight wins, Mark Byington’s squad appeared unprepared for the Sooners, and were outplayed in nearly every facet from the jump. Once again without key guards Duke Miles and Frankie Collins, the Commodores found themselves off to their slowest start of the season, staring at an early 16-point deficit to the SEC’s worst team by record. Despite a late surge, it was "too little, too late," for Vanderbilt, and it ultimately dropped its fourth…
