We have had 11 coaches since 1910. Thad Matta is the winningest of them all. He has won 73.4% of his games at
OSU. The program has won 59.2% of its games, all time (over 2,400 games).
People can grumble all they like. People grumble when Tressel "only" wins by 28 points in a game they feel he should've won by 50. It doesn't mean they have a valid point or are actually making sense. If the expectations are that we're going to the NC game every year in football and the Final Four in basketball every year, then the expectations are the problem. They're not based in reality.
If "people" want to run Matta out of town for "only" winning 73.4% of his games then they deserve whatever they get in his place. Over 100 years of history suggests that'll be about 59.2%.
