Pump the brakes everyone. Dinner time last night, we were "zeroing in on Hoiberg." As I went to bed last night, Greg McDermott was the guy.

The McDermott report was based solely of what Jeff Goodman was hearing. No one else corroborated it.
In the past hour, Goodman(ESPN), Rothstein(CBS), and David Woods(Indy Star Butler writer) have all independently said it's in the "talks/negotiations" stage of things.

Well, Holtmann is around the right age I was looking for (mid-to-late 30's to mid-40's). So that's a good thing.
I just hope the program can turn into both a recruiting program and a developing program (growth from year-to-year).
We all see what Coach Meyer's program could do when you both recruit talent and develop those recruits.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Butler’s Chris Holtmann is leading candidate to replace Matta at Ohio State
http://www.cbssports.com/college-ba...ing-candidate-to-replace-matta-at-ohio-state/
"Leading candidate"...
..... after all the rejections he's just about the only one on the track. The second place guy (i.e. maybe Jent) is so far back you can barely see him.

When this whole thing started Monday, I guess I was thinking Steve Prohm, Mike White or Chris Holtmann based on age, performance and money/realistic hire.
So if it is Holtmann, I'm fine with that.
Isn't a gigantic name, but it's also June. If it is Holtmann, I hope he's motivated to work hard for the university.

You kids stay off my lawn!
Not the first time it took a while to find a good coach willing to play second fiddle to football. When they fired Fred Taylor - the only Ohio State coach to win an NCAA title in my lifetime - they couldn't get a coach who'd sign for the same amount of money that Woody was making. A principaled man, Woody would not take more than a senior professor and insisted on teaching two courses during winter quarter: football and military history.

If this does happen, that's a great hire. The guy can coach and recruit, and at 45, has a lot of coaching ahead of him. Maybe not a homerun like a Donovan or Miller, but it's at least a two-run triple. Would really save Gene's bacon.
That said, still not getting sucked in until it's officially official.
