Holder hire: Huge

Everybody’s talking about who the next Oklahoma State men’s basketball coach will be.

Here’s guessing the one guy we don’t hear much from about the subject until the hire’s done is Mike Holder. 

Watch my latest video commentary or read below:

When Mike Holder next steps behind the podium at a hastily called press conference, he’ll be joined by the next men’s basketball coach at Oklahoma State.

Who will it be?

That, of course, is the million dollar question. Or the five or six million dollar question, depending on how deep you believe Boone Pickens’ pockets are.

I don’t pretend to have any great insight on who Holder will hire. Heck, listening to him earlier this week, the OSU athletic director didn’t have any great insight on the subject either. That could make for some interesting days ahead.

Many Cowboy fans are frustrated by Sean Sutton’s ouster. Their emotions run from consternation to out-and-out infuriation. Their reasons are varied. Some say two years just wasn’t enough time. Others say Sutton was showing signs of promise. Still others say the Sutton family deserved better for all that it has done for the university.
