I hit the panic button two years ago after the loss to Oral Roberts in the tourney, watching Holtmann team's now is like taking the business end to a one-sided contest of Roshambo. What's even more disappointing is this was a promising/talented team, but as mentioned in the article the January collapes are a problematic trend every year. Maybe instead of sending fraudulent/cryptic tweets; Brian Schottenstein should put his money where his mouth is and ask Geno how much money will it take to send Holtmann packing

I ended up enjoying it, up until Holtmann repeats one line, like "win the possession" then tails off and an assistant has to step in and actually coach. Team has tuned him out too, late game TO, Holtmann called a set, that if they made a basket for them to full court press and Justice just jogs back to the other end of the floor. No sense of urgency or energy plagues this team and we've seen this now from Holtmann teams every year, just a waste of talent and a waste of another season.

That's on Holtmann, kept trying to go to Key on the block in the 2nd half, and it didn't work once, got away from pushing tempo which worked well in the 1st half and then failed to guard the inbound on either set by UNC to end regulation, no one helped on the full court press leaving Thornton by himself, basketball, like football, fails to make proper halftime adjustments, disappointing but regroup, because I really like this team, just let them play coach

Makes me a little nervous, I'm with everyone, hate ESPN, but unless the CFP rights get opened up and the playoffs get rotated to other networks, could leave B1G on the outside if they don't profit financially for their inclusion, we all saw how ESPN treated the NHL for years until they got the broadcast rights back last year

Half measure, $EC will counter by poaching Clemson, USC, State Penn and Miami or even Nebraska and leave the remains for these elitist academia people up here who are trying to deminish/dissolve collegiate athletics. If OSU keeps trying to be a good "partner" to the B1G they will get left behind nationally and overlooked by elite recruits in the future. The south/$EC doesn't give a shit what we do up here, they think and right now they are the superior football region/conference and they will create their own title system and won't think twice.
