Sutton's legal troubles

Yesterday, Oklahoma State basketball coach Eddie Sutton was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. Tests showed his blood alcohol level was almost three times the legal limit. Sutton is currently on medical leave from the university.

Sutton's legal troubles are surprising and disappointing. He's been a fine coach and sportsman for many years. I would have never expected him to be the center of such negative publicity.

To be sure, everyone makes mistakes, but this is a big one. To be that tanked and get behind the wheel shows a serious lack of good judgment, common sense, and self-control.
