Jarion Henry, son of former Oklahoma standout Skeeter Henry, will not be be playing for the Sooners next season.

OU coach Lon Kruger said after a season-ending 62-53 loss to Texas A&M Wednesday night at the Big 12 Tournament that Henry will be attending junior college next season.

Henry originally committed to New Mexico but didn’t qualify academically. Henry, playing at LaJolla Prep in San Diego, signed with OU in late November.

A 6-foot-9 left-hander Henry averaged 14.8 points, 13.1 rebounds and 8.6 assists to lead Dallas Kimball to the Class 4A state title two years ago.
