Everybody's got their wish list for the next Oklahoma State men's basketball coach. Some of the reasons here are slightly screwy. So was the decision to show Sean Sutton the door.

5. Mark Few, Gonzaga: Wound a little too tight, but maybe if he wasn't always screaming, "We're not a mid-major,” he might chill a bit.

The man who coached the coach 04/05/2008 Bill Self might be the coach of the next national champion. Or he might be the next coach of the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Either way, Edmond Memorial High...
