Stick a fork in him

He's done:

TULSA, Okla. (AP) -- Eddie Sutton may have coached his last game, a 35-year career possibly ending six victories short of 800 because of a traffic accident in which he was injured and cited for driving under the influence.
Oklahoma State announced Monday that the 69-year-old Sutton would take a medical leave and that Sean Sutton, his son and designated heir apparent, will finish this season as coach. The school said no decision had been made on who will coach next season.


He says he's got a back problem. A witness says he saw a bottle of hydrocodone in Eddie's SUV.

    Eddie was lucky to make it as long as he did. Jack D. was a good friend back in the U of A days. Cheers.
