Too Sad, Too Ironic




Thursday night, sad news came ringing in from OSU....again. OSU Women's Head Basketball Coach Kurt Budke and assistant coach Miranda Serna were killed in a plane crash in Arkansas on Thursday. Deja vu can be a good thing sometimes but in this case, it is worst case scenario of deja vu.
     Just 10yrs ago, an airplane carrying 10 coach's/ players from the men's basketball team died in a plane crash in January 2001. What are the chances? How could it happen twice? Why would it happen twice? Its like a bad dream, with its own sequel. How do the kids pick up from there? how do the family and school community cope?Well its hard to fathom how this could happen to this program again but one thing we do know is, there are a lot of strong kids at Oklahoma State and as they did in 2001, with the prayers, love and support of that great community, they will survive. To all the victims and their families be strong and our thoughts and prayers are with you.

RIP Coach Budke and Coach Serna, you will be missed.
