Thad and the Buckeyes...

Post by FLW Buckeye »

7-0 so far... Thad and Co. working it.

Figured that the program would be marking time until the next year's bunch of freshmen hit the hardwood.


Props to this year's crew and...

Rack the Buckeyes!

I said it when he was hired, Matta would have tO$U a top 20 program year in and year out within 3 years. I don't know if/when I'll get over him not being IU's head coach.

Shine,
I am personally a huge fan of anyone who replaces MDavis but I am sure glad we got Thad. The thing I don't understand is we saw the same change when Jimmy O came to Columbus. He created a top program in a few short years but fell off the map these last few years. Here's hoping Thad creates a new trend.

It's still early, but it looks like the obvious difference between Matta & Obie will be recruiting. And after watching that ISU game, I have little doubt about Matta's ability to make in-game adjustments. That was just damn good coaching. Can't wait till the Thad 5 arrive.

Yep. Matta could sell ice to an eskimo me thinks.

Holy effing shit! Lance.... don't know if you bought the Hoops package out there in 'Zona..... but that comeback we just had against LSU was on par with the Illinois game last year. Down 15 w/ 5 or 6 minutes to play.... came out of nowhere w/ Sylvester popping the three with 5 seconds left. Unreal!

That Matta is an animal!
