Chris Holtmann made the NCAA tournament his first two years at Ohio State, and he got bounced out in the second round to end both seasons.
A global pandemic stopped the Buckeyes from even having a chance at a postseason in Year 3 of the Holtmann era. How far would they have gone? It's impossible to know. Holtmann sure thinks they had a shot to advance a few rounds.
Ohio State hasn't advanced to the Sweet 16 since 2015, and it hasn't made a Final Four since 2012. Holtmann surely wants to advance multiple weekends and reach the Final Four, ending the nearly decade-long drought, but will he ever take the Buckeyes that far into the NCAA tournament?
