Chris Holtmann (ex-tOSU Bball coach, HC at DePaul)

Glad it worked out I know that. Love love love the effort, spacing, off ball movement, and multiple cuts in the offense. Never seen so many backdoor dunks and wide open kick out threes from a Buckeye team ever.

See bold.

I am honestly less concerned about the X & O's genius of a coach vs the motivational element. I just want the teams I'm a fan of to go hard and act half as invested in the outcome as I am. I can forgive my favorite teams' players for being athletically limited at their sport, but refuse to run or play defense? Get the fuck out of dodge.

I'm the same. I can live with the overall lack of stars but I want my teams to leave it on the floor. There wasn't much worse than watching 5 guys stand around and someone taking an off-balance, contested shot with 2 on the shot clock repeatedly or turning the ball over and just watching the opponent go the other way for an easy bucket. Saw way too much of that the past 3 years. Super excited about college hoops again and not wishing the next 2 months away like I usually am at this time.

This appears to be a good hire.
Entitled fan: "Well, it's early. Still needs to prove himself and show what he can do with his own players."

Bravo coach! Cant say enough about the attitude and effort these guys are playing with. So much excitement about Buckeye basketball and it's awesome!
Yes. And stop the "Ohio State can never have a basketball team" BS too please in the future. If Xavier can have a top baskets program, so can OSU. No reason we shouldn't be a top 20 team year in and year out. We have the facilities and finances, we just needed a coach.
