Sean Sutton, who kept the family name in place at Oklahoma State after succeeding his father as coach, will not return for a third season, a source close to the program told ESPN Radio's Doug Gottlieb.
Sutton will be paid for the remaining three years on his five-year contract, the source said Tuesday.
A former Oklahoma State guard and an assistant on Eddie Sutton's coaching staff, Sean Sutton was unable to get the Cowboys to the NCAA tournament. He was 39-29 with two first-round NIT defeats.
With a succession plan already in place, Sutton first was named interim coach at Oklahoma State in February 2006 after his father took a leave of absence following an arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Eddie Sutton did not coach the Cowboys again but did jump back into the game at San Francisco as the Dons' interim coach. Sutton, who said he would not return to the program, has 804 career victories.
Scott Sutton, the youngest son of Eddie Sutton, is the coach at Oral Roberts.
Jeez, how many of those sweathogs are there?
"Before Eddie Sutton took over the program at his alma mater in 1990, Oklahoma State had made the NCAA tournament only once in the previous 25 years."
And there's something wrong with Aggie fans cheering their team right now?
You ain't ya daddy (who made his name at Arkansas) and ya never be close son.
Actually, he reinvented arKy basketball.
I wonder if we will get a better HC than South Bama's old coach? (who was recruited, played for and coached under Sutton, btw)
The thought of Bill Self leaving Kansas to go to OSU is laughable, no matter how much $$ T Boone can throw at him.
Maybe Kelvin Sampson can go for the the hat trick in Oklahoma.
Are you kidding? Boone couldn't afford his cell phone bill.
I'm hearing Jamie Dixon or Lon Krueger right now.
Dixon's a west coast guy and wouldn't even interview with Cal, highly doubtful that he leaves Pitt.
Last I'd checked, John Pelphrey's team made the tournament this year...
I say you go for the Sutton trifecta and pick up Scott.
Or get Bryce Drew
So did the school he left to go to Arkansas. Maybe Kevin O'Neill wants to come to Stillwater.
I'm sure he WANTS to.
I think you guys would be lucky to get someone like Kevin O'Neill... aka the guy who was named the successor to a program that has been to the NCAA Tournament 24 straight seasons.
And I don't even like Arizona.

I heard Billy Gillespie just landed at the Stillwater airport and the contract should be done by tonight...
You know, he supposedly never signed his UK contract.
He hasn't. Maybe he was secretly waiting for this opening...
I think it's pretty obvious that Billy would be making a lateral move...
Record: Career (118-71), at Kentucky (18-13)
Coaching background: Kentucky head coach (2007-08), head coach Texas A&M (2004-07), head coach UTEP (2002-2004),
Bio: Gillispie took over the reigns at Kentucky after totally turning Texas A&M around. Got the A&M gig after a remarkable turnaround at UTEP. The Wildcats struggled early in Gillispie's first season, limping to a 9-9 record five games into the SEC regular season. The Cats turned it around to finish with an 18-13 record and NCAA bid.
Why Gillispie: He knows the Big 12 conference inside and out and is an "Iba disciple." Gillispie still has not signed the contract that Kentucky put in front of him last year.
The one "Okie State guy" I know is my buddy Spence. I've always thought it was uberpimp that he owned a Thurman Thomas jersey rather than a Barry Sanders one, 'cause he went to school then. So just on that fact I assume he knows more about Pokes athletics than I do.
He swears that his school and T. Boone's money is going to bring in an elite coach. C'mon, really? Would OSU drop 5 mill a year on somebody? And what's elite, anyway?
I was told Boone's offer for Self is 40 for 10.
That dude is crazy. Why not make it 15 and an even 60?
I actually think they should make a pitch to Kevin Stallings from Vanderbilt.
Dumbass post of April nominee.
Hahahaha I wouldn't doubt it! Billy is a playa hata !
