The question wasn’t even finished being asked to Kam Williams before Ohio State’s fifth-year senior guard started his response. Williams was that confident.
“Absolutely not,” Williams said when he was asked Thursday if the Buckeyes’ lack of depth was a concern for the players. “We have supreme confidence in the seven, eight guys that we have and we feel like if we all can gel then we don’t need anyone else to come in the circle.”
Fair enough. But the reality is, while it may not be a concern for the Ohio State players — they probably shouldn’t be expected to say otherwise — it’s a bit problematic for Chris Holtmann and the rest of the Buckeyes’ coaching staff.
