2014/15 Ohio Team Stats

Last year I wrote in this space about our heartbreaking ending and how we wasted a chance to go to the NCAA Tournament. Of course, I feel the same this year, but our competition was much better. We *should* have been up to it. If we make a couple shots here and there we beat a couple more teams. If I don't fuck up my schedule I don't lose to North Florida b/c its a game 2 days in a row and I'm 23-7 instead of 22-8 and an at-large maybe.

But this year feels different because our conference was much stronger. We were the best team all around, but every team in conference play that beat us was a decent team. No total choke jobs.

I do feel that this was a great year to land a couple goals to improve myself as a coach, and I failed to do that. Also, the immersion factor is awesome, because more than anything, I'm disappointed that I didn't get to win a NCAA Tournament game with House and Cooper. They'll hopefully be the guys that helped to launch this program to the top of the mid-major world, even if they didn't reap the benefits themselves.

We're going to have 3 seniors next year, Watson, Lufkin and Lamkin. Barring a miracle in recruiting, Lamkin and Lufkin will be asked to replace Cooper and House in the starting lineup for a season. Lufkin is up to 12 ppg or so I believe. He's rated well, just not as athletic, but he'll get his points. Lamkin I am worried about, I belive he'll be streaky and not as reliable as a starter.
