Holtmann getting it done. Beating #1 MSU by 16. 

Hofmann is the real deal. Ohio state was not suppose to be that good.

I remember a strong contingent on here that didn't believe he was good enough for IU

Not me.  I wanted him more than Miller, I loved the way his Butler teams played.

That doesn't mean he isn't the real deal. He is no question.

He was above Miller for me as well.

What makes him so impressive is he has come into Ohio state and won without his own players.

Honestly, I'd have some reservations with him as well.  He wasn't my top choice among current college coaches, Holtmann and Miller were both on a list of coaches I wanted to see a little more from though I liked Holtmann more.

Dude wins one game at home first season there and were going to say he is better than archie. Lets give this several years and then we can debate.
I know u guys are just giving your opinion and i respect that but my opinion is it is way to early to judge that

they weren’t suppose to be that bad the last couple of years with the talent they had but they underachieved. Holtmann is absolutely a great young coach. Bates-Diop is playing like the stud he was suppose to be his first couple years and Tate is just a upperclassman (top 100) kid that is playing like a senior should play. If Miller would of been hired by OSU people would of said IU made a mistake. If IU hired holtmann people would of said IU made a mistake. I personally think both programs are in solid hands for the long haul. If you want to be pissed because another coach at another team is having success sooner then your guy then that’s people right but don’t expect me to flip out because OSU is having a better year then IU.
Tier 1 wins: OSU 1
IU 1

I had just purchased a fancy vcr for this game, one that you could program to record at a time when you weren't home. Yes kids, that was a big deal back then.

 

I raced home after work to make sure it recorded...and it did. What a great game.

I say he's a heck of a coach and you say I'm pissed. Where did I say I was upset or say that we made the wrong choice? Please do tell.

IF you build your athletics program through football the success will spread to other sports.

That it such bullsh*t! Duke, UNC, UK, MSU, how many National Championships do these schools possess in football. I could go on and on....

Villanova wil be #1 and #2-5 who knows.

There's more than one good young coach out there... OSU hiring a good one doesn't mean we hired a bad one.

Wasn’t necessarily saying you were mad just people in general. I quoted you to play off the OSU wasn’t supposed to be good and just rolled with a thought. Sorry for quoting you

Agreed. Just You want to hire the best one. Not one of the good ones. 

Time will tell

I don't remember anyone wanting Holtmann over Archie.  Many including myself preferred Marshall, Mack or Bennett though.

Holtman is doing a great job, no doubt, but if we’re comparing the situations he’s aided by the fact that his returning upperclassmen (Bates-Diop, Williams, Tate, Jackson) are playing like upperclassmen and leaders should. Bates-Diop is a Big Ten POY candidate.

For sure he came into a better situation still very impressive what he has done
