You forgot one factor today regarding OSU’s lack of attendance this year. The firing of Sean Sutton. As a ’81 alumn and avid basketball fan every since, I can say without exception that my disinterest in OSU Basketball this season is directly the result of firing Sean. There was never given any reason beyond wins and losses for Sean’s dismissal. According to Holder’s press conference Sean became a victim of his Dad’s success. That did it for me, I haven’t even watched a full half of OSU basketball this season. I assure you that’s never happend in the last 20 years. Maybe I’ll change my attitude in the future, but Holder’s move convinced me college sports are all about money and nothing to do with integrity and sports.
