Eddie Sutton said spending the last 16 years as men’s basketball coach at Oklahoma State was like a honeymoon. But after an auto accident led to a drunk driving charge, Sutton said Friday it was time to retire. He ended a 36-year career in which he led four schools into the NCAA Tournament and coached in three Final Fours. Sutton, 70, will finish his coaching career two victories shy of his previously stated goal - 800 wins. He ranks fifth in Division I history in victories Source : nl.newsbank.com |
