love how Boone Pickens loves Mike "I'M A MAN,I'm 40!" Gundy and his sub .500 record as a football coach but essentially fires Sean Sutton who has basically the exact same record as Jeff Capel, who gets a raise and extension, through the same amount of seasons.

That is just how they do things at Boone Pickens St., they want to be big time like OU but will never be as good no matter how much money Boone Pickens gives. Sorry OSU, enjoy falling behind Tulsa as second best school in the state.

... as a former OSU alum, but OU and OSU men's basketball are heading in different directions. OU up, OSU down. How many opening round NIT losses has it been for OSU? 2 or 3? I think Sutton's "resignation", if that is indeed what it really was, will prove best for OSU b-ball in the long run. Sean Sutton had supposedly one of the best recruiting classes in the nation a few years back, and look who's still there: Terrell Harris and Byron Eaton... that's it, I'm pretty sure. Some questions to ask are (1) who are realistic candidates to replace Sutton; and (2) how will this impact their recruiting?

I wish Sean Sutton the best of luck as a new coach elsewhere. He always seemed a bit overwhelmed in Stillwater.

I think okie st. made a mistake, its good for ou barring a fluke hire, but i still think sutton got a bad deal, all coaches should get thier recruiting classes through barring exceptional circumstances, ie sampson at indiana.
