I have been watching
OSU basketball as long as the football program and the coaches that stick in my memory are Fred taylor, Jim O'Brien and now Thad Matta. We all Knew Williams was going to Maryland the first chance he was given. The other guy, well i just want to forget him. Chuck Taylor brought basketball to its highest level in the 60's and has set the standards ever since. But there is one quality about Thad that i like and that is the way he coaches. I don't know if he is the recruiter that some of his peers in the big ten are but he is holding his own.
Michigan State right now is the top dog in the Conference and they are going to get all the top recruits before Thad will. thad seems to take "diamonds in the rough" and turns them into very
competitive players. There will always be grumblings coming from alot of
OSU
fans and thats the way its going to be always. I see so many small mistakes and hitches in ball players today, that it's not funny.... but i am not going in that direction. Thats up to the coaches to bring that up. I think Thad Matta is going to be around for awhile and he will be fine.
