What exactly has Gene Smith delivered? He didn't hire Tressel or Matta. Urban Meyer landed in his lap. I suppose he may have delivered our undefeated season by not voluntarily taking a bowl ban in 2011.

I know you may not care about this, but Gene Smith is in charge of all athletics. And almost every sport we have under his tenure is now competitive, and either going for a championship or near a championship. So while you may not like what he's done in football, you can't ignore what he's done to the athletic department as a whole.

tOSU has been historically competitive in quite a few sports. In what sports has tOSU gotten significantly better? Mens hockey- No. Mens soccer- No. Mens gymnastics- No. Womens Basketball- He got rid of Foster so I'll give him credit for making a move. Mens Baseball- He got rid of Todd so I'll give him credit for making a move. Mens Volleyball- They've been good a long time- maybe they've gotten better? Obviously there plenty of sports not mentioned here but I couldn't easily lookup their historical records.

Typical scUM fan greatness by association, to a thread questioning Nussmeier...

The guy was an OC at the University of Alabama, I think he got that job because he knew a thing or two....Just a guess.

Despite the fact that their offense has shown no improvement, it's not Nussmeier's fault, because....bammer.

That's the list of championships at least. Women's volleyball has gotten increasingly competitive over the past few years. There's a few other sports I've been hearing more about within the past few years getting better.

Thanks for the link. I do think that tOSU has made a lot of headway in becoming THE flagship university in Ohio and I have no real complaints about the athletic department.
