Finally… Cowboys Expel Sutton

On Wednesday, Oklahoma State Coach Sean Sutton resigned. During his tenure, Sutton logged a 39-29 ledger. Within the Big Twelve Conference, Sutton was only 13-19. “I think Sean was probably a victim of expectations,” said Athletic Director Mike Holder. “He was put in a tough situation. It's hard enough to follow a legend. But when that legend is your father, that's probably tough to the third power. Perhaps, in a different set of circumstances, he would have enjoyed more success.”

Sutton’s situation was awkward. Eddie Sutton embarrassed Oklahoma State. Sean was merely available. Ultimately, success and victories were irrelevant. Sean was not wanted. He was never wanted.
