Ohio State: Best sports school?


Football: Always in the running for the national championship, won 4 straight Big Ten titles, Constantly gets good recruits.

Basketball: National runner-ups 3 years ago, ranked high early last season, In the NCAA Tournament, Constantly gets good recruits.

Hockey: Top 16 team this year, in the tournment

Baseball: Won the Big Ten, in the Tournament, Bob Todd (HC) is something like 973-76 in his career here.

Men's volleyball: We were in the NCAA Final 4 for that.

Tennis: We lost in the NCAA championship game

Softball: Lost in NCAA regionals this year

Golf: We are in the NCAA tournament (Which is currently being played in Toledo)

Rifle: Finished 3rd in NCAA tournament

Track: Won all the relay events at the Big Ten Tournament (Thanks to Laamar Thomas)

Fencing: Finished 3rd in NCAA Tournament

Soccer: Lost in Championship game 2 years ago (Goalie was Perrysburg native Casey Latchum!)

Lacrosse: Lost in conference title game

Cross Country: Finished 8th at NCAA regonial championships



We are your superior. nod.gif

No, you are not in the running every year. Plus, it isn't 4 straight, 2 of them were shared. And getting good recruits means nothing. Notre Dame has gotten good recruiting classes, and they have had what, 3 striaght disappointing seasons?

Basketball: National runner-ups 3 years ago, ranked high early last season, In the NCAA Tournament, Constantly gets good recruits.

Being runners-up 3 years ago is not something to brag about. Being ranked high means nothing also. If you have 0 wins but were ranked #2 at the beginning of the season, that makes it okay? Teams like Alabama State make it to the NCAA tourney, and have no shot at winning.  Once again, recruiting means nothing.

Hockey: Top 16 team this year, in the tournment

That is just one season, what about the others?

Baseball: Won the Big Ten, in the Tournament, Bob Todd (HC) is something like 973-76 in his career here.

Men's volleyball: We were in the NCAA Final 4 for that.

You seem to be foregetting to include some history in these. Penn State has won numerous titles, Final Fours, and tourney apperances, why not mention some of OSU's? Plus, you have told me it isn't a sport, so this is irrelevant.

Tennis: We lost in the NCAA championship game

Best there is then.

Softball: Lost in NCAA regionals this year

No other team can do that.

Golf: We are in the NCAA tournament (Which is currently being played in Toledo)

Just this year?

Rifle: Finished 3rd in NCAA tournament

You've told me rifling is not a sport either, so irrelevant.

Track: Won all the relay events at the Big Ten Tournament (Thanks to Laamar Thomas)

Um, no. If you bothered to do research properly, you lost the Women's 4x100, so you didn't win them all.

Fencing: Finished 3rd in NCAA Tournament

You called this a "non-sport" too.

Soccer: Lost in Championship game 2 years ago (Goalie was Perrysburg native Casey Latchum!)

Once again, that was one year. How about through the years?

Lacrosse: Lost in conference title game

So, not a very good point to bring up.

Cross Country: Finished 8th at NCAA regonial championships

Just regionals?



 Overall, your list was inaccurate and full of inappropriate stats.

I knew you would try to defend it not being Penn State in every way possible.

Most of the stats were just this year...

And "recruiting means nothing" are you kidding????????????

Name me the last team to win a championship who didn't get good recruits. And yes a shared conference title means a conference title.


What the topic really meant to say was best sports school of the year. I say yes.

 Jealousy? Thames says yes. If he wasn't he wouldn't of bothered to have little snotty rebuttals to everything I said.

Well I guess I aren't, since I didn't touch baseball.

Most of the points I brought up were only from this year. I see your point.

University of Florida is not too bad. Back to back titles in Basketball and two championships in football in three years.  Sadly for my Noles it has been a good time but we did make it to March madness this year in mens basketball.

OSU, Florida, Texas, USC, and Oklahoma are some of the top schools all time in sports

OSU got manhandle in the National Championship game in football. I also believe UF beat OSU in college basketball to take the title as well. My Noles should be in the ten programs of all time.
