You could be forgiven for feeling down about this Ohio State coaching search.
The timing is all wrong, and the Buckeyes missed out on the obvious candidate, Archie Miller, who will now face the Buckeyes every season, making sure fans don’t forget what could have been. Ohio State’s roster is in shambles, with virtually no depth at point guard or center, and without enough scholarship bodies to even play five on five in practice.
That’s all true. But there’s one truth Ohio State fans and administrators would do well to remember.
This is still a really good job.
