Longtime OSU coach Eddie Sutton retires

Two victories shy of his 800th win, Eddie Sutton decided it was time to leave college basketball and let his son coach Oklahoma State.

The 70-year-old coach retired, ending a 36-year career in which he made three trips to the Final Four and became the first coach to take four schools to the NCAA tournament.

His retirement takes effect June 30. He will be succeeded by Sean Sutton, who was an assistant on his father’s staff.
