Over the last fi ve years at Ohio State, Matta s teams advanced to a second appearance in the Final Four (2012), made an unmatched four consecutive appearances in the NCAA tournament Sweet 16 from , own three Big Ten regular-season crowns and appeared in four Big Ten tournament title games. However, success has been the norm for Ohio State since Matta took over the program in The Buckeyes, with seven undeclassmen -- one freshman and six sophomores -- on the roster, closed the season with fi ve wins to fi nish second in the fi nal Big Ten standings.

The 13th head coach in Ohio State history guided his fi rst edition of Buckeye basketball to a campaign in and followed that effort with a 26-6 record and an outright Big Ten regular-season championship in The 2007 season was even better with both an outright Big Ten regular-season title and the league tournament crown as well. Ohio State advanced to the NCAA title game and fi nished the season with a school-record 35 wins against just four losses. The campaign ended with a streak of fi ve consecutive victories and the 2008 National Invitation Tournament Title, won over three days at New York s Madison Square Garden.
