Holder: ‘Ford gave it everything,’ wants experience in next coach

Jordan Bishop S p o rts R e p o rter

After the announcement of Oklahoma State and men’s basketball coach Travis Ford’s mutual agreement to part ways Friday evening, Athletic Director Mike Holder met with select members of the media Saturday morning. In the meeting, Holder said it was a difficult decision letting Ford go after eight seasons, especially a coach with Ford’s character. “It’s hard to admit you’ve come to the end of the road,” Holder said. “We spent eight years together, him doing his job and working hard. (He was) totally committed to OSU basketball. ... It’s just hard to come the realization that it might be best for all parties to try something else.” Holder said it was a culmination of things that led

to Ford’s firing. One of them was the program’s unluckiness in terms of injuries, which has attributed to a decrease in quality of play and overall fan interest. “To walk into the building and not see it full of life and fans and energy, that was disappointing,” Holder said. “I felt for the players. I felt for the coaches, and I felt for the fans that were there. “... Hopefully, this new start will invigorate the fan base and give them a reason to buy tickets and start showing up in numbers again.” Holder said he had contacted all but one player and all but one recruit about the coaching change. He said he isn’t worried about current players transferring because after Sean Sutton was fired in 2008, assistant coach James Dickey helped keep the team together. Saturday, Holder named Dickey interim head coach. “(Dickey is) the logical choice; he’s done it before,” Holder said. “He’s a loyal soldier. ... I think the players trust him and like him, and he along with me will do what we can to reassure those kids. We’d like for this to be a speedy process, but

who knows how long it’s going to take?” OSU will be looking at a lot of names that have been mentioned in the media for the coaching position, Holder said. The school needs someone with “character, honesty, integrity and that can recruit the state of Texas,” Holder said. One of the big names floating around the fan base is CBS analyst and former Cowboy point guard Doug Gottlieb. Holder said he has heard Gottlieb’s name mentioned from fans and his wife. While he sees the intrigue of having him, he does have concerns about Gottlieb’s lack of coaching experience. “I mean, really, if you’re a Cowboy, how could you not like (Gottlieb)?” Holder said. “I’m so proud of what he’s done and been able to accomplish and the image he presents for our institution. ... But I think it’s important for us to be rational about how we approach this. Now, will he be considered? Why not? The kicker for him is that you’ve got to get over the fact that he’s never coached a game. That’s huge.” Holder said he gained

experience from the last coaching search in 2008 that resulted in Ford’s hiring, and he knows what to do and not to do in terms of the process. There is no timetable for when a new coach will be announced, Holder said. In 2008, it took 15 days to hire Ford. Holder said he wished Ford all the best in his next job, and that he hoped the Cowboy fan base did, too. Although it didn’t work out, Ford was one of the hardest working coaches, Holder said. “I can assure everyone out there Travis Ford gave it everything he had every single day he was on the job,” Holder said. “He’s got a lot to be proud of.

Opinion: Hiring Gottlieb is the right move

Connor Nybo Sports Reporter

Several Oklahoma State basketball fans have had one train of thought regarding the Cowboys’ coaching future: firing Travis Ford and hiring former Cowboy Doug Gottlieb. Because the first has somewhat unsurprisingly come true, the next move

would be to “Bring Doug Home.” Selecting Gottlieb as coach would appear to be a move largely appeasing to the desires of a fan base as well as Gottlieb himself, but it wouldn’t be made without some legitimate merit. Gottlieb can succeed because he wants OSU to succeed, as to where with any other coach, this is only another job. OSU and Stillwater are parts of Gottlieb. Gottlieb was a fan favorite as a point guard at OSU from 1997-2000 under legendary coach Eddie Sutton. He has the most assists per game in Big 12 history, and

he led the Cowboys to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament in 2000. Gottlieb is undeniably in the upper echelon of Cowboys, statistically and in the minds of its fans. Would that make him a good coach? On its own, probably not. However, Gottlieb is a well-respected broadcast personality, and simply one of the most favorably viewed candidates in the minds of Cowboys fans. The man knows basketball. His job at CBS is literally to analyze basketball. OSU ranked 58th out of 65 Power 5 schools in attendance, filling up only 43.03 percent of its seats

in Gallagher-Iba Arena on average, the lowest in the Big 12. Bringing Gottlieb back to Stillwater would give Cowboys fans something to be excited about and would likely bring an instant improvement to what has turned into abysmal attendance. With the environment of modern bigmoney college sports and a big-conference program such as OSU that relies on athletics for revenue and national attention, having such poor attendance simply is unacceptable. If the fans come back to GIA after hiring Gottlieb, he would still have to win to stay in the fans’ good

favor. Although he has no previous coaching experience, Gottlieb would provide an instant boost to fan support, recruiting and general excitement around the team. If he is hired and turns out to be a success in

terms of wins and losses, Gottlieb would further his legacy as an OSU legend and for that reason should at least be considered as a candidate. F o l l o w connor: @connor_nybo

Opinion: Don’t bring Doug home

Chandler Vessels S ports R ep ort er

With the Oklahoma State men’s basketball coaching job open, OSU fans have made it clear whom they want. Bring Doug home. That is the sentiment heard across Stillwater right now. Although it would be a good move to generate fan interest

and get butts back in seats in Gallagher-Iba Arena, it wouldn’t be the best move to get OSU back to winning. Doug Gottlieb won numerous games as a player at OSU. Never in his life has he won a game as a collegiate coach. Because never in his life has he coached a collegiate game of basketball. It’s a gamble. Maybe Eddie Sutton rubbed off on Gottlieb, but what if he hasn’t and Gottlieb starts losing? What if OSU fans turn against one of their own? Then the Cowboys are set back another three or four years, and the process of finding a new coach starts again. The Cowboys would be

better giving the position to someone with a track record of winning. In three seasons at Stephen F. Austin, Brad Underwood has a record of 89-13. He has guided the Lumberjacks to conference titles and NCAA Tournament berths in all three seasons. This year and last year, SFA pulled first-round upsets in the tournament. He has Big 12 ties as a Kansas State alumnus. Buzz Williams missed the NCAA Tournament only once in six years at Marquette. He turned players such as Jimmy Butler and Jae Crowder into NBA players. In his second season at Virginia Tech, he turned the

program around and landed an NIT berth. An NCAA berth is on the horizon. As a Texas native, he has Big 12 ties, too. Gregg Marshall has turned Wichita State into a midmajor powerhouse. He has to be on the list for almost any school with a coaching vacancy. OSU would be foolish not to at least offer. There are plenty more candidates. Chris Beard from Arkansas-Little Rock. Andy Enfield from USC. Ben Jacobson from Northern Iowa. All of these coaches are proven winners. One would think they have the ability to turn one more program around and bring OSU’s winning tradition back. Gottlieb is nice because of nostalgia. OSU fans remem-

ber the days when Sutton was coach and Gottlieb was leading the Cowboys deep into the NCAA Tournament. They want that back and look at Gottlieb as a guy who can deliver it.

But there’s no proof he can. Hiring Gottlieb could work out. But what if it doesn’t? Follow c h andle r: @C h andle rVe sse ls

Dieringer defines Cowboy dynasty with third title D e k o ta Gregory Spo rts Rep ort er

Oklahoma State wrestling coach John Smith told Alex Dieringer his third NCAA Championship title would be the hardest to get. Dieringer made it look easy Saturday night at Madison Square Garden. Dieringer eased past Wisconsin’s Isaac Jordan 6-2

in the 165-pound final. Just like his career, Dieringer showed dominance as soon as he stepped on the mat to hand Jordan his first loss of the season. Dieringer scored an early takedown and tallied 1:25 of riding time in the first period. He controlled the rest of the match to become OSU’s 16th three-time national champion. The whistle sounded, and Dieringer fell to the mat. He lay there with his face buried in his hands to embrace his final moment wearing an orange singlet. “It’s a pretty amazing feat, what I just did,” Dieringer said in a phone interview. “I’m just gonna try and

enjoy the moment.” The victory gave Dieringer his 82nd straight win. After North Carolina State’s Nick Gwiazdowski lost in the heavyweight final, Dieringer’s streak became the longest in the country. It’s also the third-longest streak in OSU history. Dieringer is also a four-time All-American. He posted back-to-back undefeated seasons. His 133 career wins leave Smith, at 152, as the only wrestler in Cowboy history with more. The accolades continue. That’s why Smith said Dieringer ranked in the top five in OSU wrestling history. “I didn’t hear (Smith say that) until about a week

I knew I had to win this time in order to be top five, but I’m always pretty confident, and I was really excited for the journey.” Dieringer’s career at OSU is over, but his wrestling career isn’t. He travels to Iowa City, Iowa, April 9-10, to participate in the 2016 Wrestling Olympic Trials. Dieringer will compete for a spot at 74 kilograms in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Summer Olympic Games for the United States. “I’ll be a wrestler for life,” Dieringer said. “I’m going to give back to the sport
