Everything happens for a reason
And you aint gonna stop it
If you build your own prison

Lyrics from ‘Let it Go’ by the Randy Rogers Band.

Earlier this year, former OSU Basketball coach, Sean Sutton, son of legendary basketball coach, Eddie Sutton, was arrested under charges of illegally buying and consuming prescription drugs without a prescription. Sean was addicted to Oxycontin and other painkillers he had been prescribed earlier, and was now finally coming to terms with his addicted. A low point in his life, for sure. Sean went into an intensive drug rehab program in Utah for 115 days, 25 more days than he was required to do, and after coming to terms with his own addicted, began to become a light for other members of the program. Today was Sean Sutton’s hearing at the court here in Stillwater, he plead guilty, addressing the media in a special press conference just before the hearing, taking full blame and responsibility, hiding nothing. Sean was given 3 years probation, fines, and community service. The world needs more folks who understand the weight of situations, who understand when they have done wrong. To truly apologize and mean it, Sean Sutton didn’t hide at all today, he took the criticism and showed a lot of strength. Heres to wishing a great recovery for Sean Sutton, his family of his wife and 3 kids.
