They would be dead wrong
This guy can coach!!
Besides, hoops are the third most important sport at Ohio State

Per Gary Parrish:
"SOURCE: Chris Holtmann is in negotiations to become Ohio State's coach. Still not 100% done. But could finalize today barring a breakdown".
It looks like it's going to happen

If true, I wonder which Butler assistant coach will get the job
Seems to be a pattern there - they generally promote from within

I doubt it this time but it is also because they always have had "real" assistant coaches.
Wouldn't it be ironic if Thad Matta takes the job since his salary won't be an issue over the next 5 years. :lol:

Butler rarely makes mistakes in hiring a head coach so don't be so excited.
It seems the rest of the basketball world has been feeding off the Big East for years. :huh:
Re. Luther Muhammad, if Shamorie comes to his senses and decides to return for his junior year, Luther becomes a much lower priority especially with the addition of Dixon. Add Justin Simon and Bryan Trimble and we be OK at guard for 2017-18. The focus will continue to be a big but this staff seems to leave no stone unturned.

Wouldn't be surprised if, after next year, we are worried about Simon leaving as well. Retention will be very important. Sometimes convincing your own players to stay is as important as recruiting (see Blueitt, Brunson, etc.).

Would expect Boston Celtics assistant coach Micah Shrewsberry to be among the main names at Butler. Milwaukee's LaVall Jordan, too.
