BOISE, Idaho – All good things must come to an end.
Whether you believe the saying to be true or not, there is no denying that Ohio State's 2017-18 season was one that was likely never going to end in a national title. However, how it ended on Saturday night in Boise was fully representative of what the year became for Chris Holtmann's first squad in Columbus.
The game began with a 15-0 run by Gonzaga, burying Ohio State's hopes before they ever got off the ground. Similarly, that is how the Buckeyes' season began, with just eight scholarship players on the roster at one point during the offseason, leaving little to no hope for any kind of sustainable success for the season.
