STATE Big 12 leaders discuss future (AP) — Big 12 athletic directors emerged from a second day of meetings on Wednesday expressing hope that the league will stay intact. But they admit they’re also looking at what options they might have if it doesn’t. Nebraska’s Tom Osborne said he hoped something definite might be known after presidents and chancellors — who have the final say — begin meeting on Thursday. The future of the 14- year-old league was thrown into question when the more lucrative Big Ten said it might look to expand. Missouri and Nebraska indicated they would be willing to listen if they were invited. Sutton court hearing delayed (AP) — A court hearing for former Oklahoma State basketball coach Sean Sutton has been delayed by two months. Sutton had been due to appear Monday in Payne County District Court for a preliminary hearing on four felony charges alleg- ing that he illegally obtained a series of pre- scription drugs but that hearing was postponed until Aug. 13. District Attorney Rob Hudson says the hearing was pushed back because Sutton remains in a rehab program he entered after his arrest in February. Sutton went 39-29 in two seasons as Oklahoma State’s coach before resigning under pressure in April 2008. He had inherited the program after his father, Eddie Sutton, stepped down following a drunk driving crash. His preliminary hearing was initially scheduled for April.
