Unreal Sports Dilemmas

Eddie Sutton just cemented his seat in retirement. After a good career at Oklahoma St. and the revelation, at least to me, of the probationary issues he brought to Kentucky plus his alcohol abuse, it's time for him to step back even if he is 6 wins away from 800 for his career. That is exceptional, and although it may hold him back from the College Basketball Hall of Fame, he knows he will have a spot in Ok State's hall. I don't think he'll be able to overcome this DUI stance that Oklahoma considers tough.

I also have a feeling that with all the recent coaching matters in the college game there will be other coaches to join the carousel that already holds Bob Huggins and Quin Synder. I wouldn't to surprised to see either Huggins or Rick Majerus with the job at Mizzou. Either one would be a good fit. Huggins just got a raw deal because Cincy is more of a local style for most of the students who do go there. Mike Davis will most definitely be out. He's made enough excuses about the school's theory of keeping him or showing the long road to nowhere, which I believe goes thru every small town in Indiana. I'm sure I'm also missing a few other coaches who will join the carousel in the coming weeks. More will be known come conference tourney time or after the NCAA field has been set.

And it's official, Michelle Kwan has stepped aside. Luckily it was with enough time for the US to call a suitable replacement for her. She lived a good Olympic shelf life, but now she's got time to heal up and either start here professional skating career or starting the career she went to school for. It was a good career Michelle. We'll see you sitting in a broadcast booth somewhere soon.
