If you are an Ohio State men’s basketball fan and think it’s time for coach Thad Matta to go away, here’s some advice. Be careful what you wish for. Whoever would come after Matta might not be a grand-slam home run. He could be a ground rule double or even a pop-up. The evidence that Matta has lost the ability to coach, recruit, inspire his players and motivate fans to show up at the Schottenstein Center seems to be a little thin. Though it is probably a long shot this season, every team he has coached so far at Ohio State, just like all of his teams at Xavier and Butler, have won at least 20 games. From 2006-2015, Ohio State made the NCAA tournament 9 of 10 seasons.
