Oklahoma State University fields a men's golf team in the Big 12 Conference (NCAA Division I). In 2024–25 the roster carried 11 players, above the median of 10, with 1 head coach and 2 assistants. Team expenses were $1,660,630, well above the median of $508k — $150,966 per roster spot, top 10% of Division I men's golf programs. Under the Division I roster cap of 9 in force from 2025-26, that is 2 over — cuts or attrition are likely, though players already on the roster may stay (161 of 303 Division I programs carried more than the cap). The team's multi-year Academic Progress Rate is 1000, about the median of 993, with 100% of players retained year to year. The school gave $4,500,279 in athletic aid across its men's teams, about $15,902 per roster spot.
