The Ohio State University has two of the best coaches in the country with Jim Tressel heading up the football team and Thad Matta engineering the basketball squad.
Gene Smith and the board of directors are acting fast in locking up both to long term contracts. Matta, currently has an eight year deal worth 11 million dollars, is going to sign an extension in the next couple days.
LETS HOPE,
everything I have seen so far from Matta is that he could be much like Tressel in getting great talet and then using it correctly (unlike Cooper). If that is the case, the OSU basketball program could follow in the steps of its football program and how could anyone have a problem with that.
