Gene Smith Has the Ohio State Athletic Department Humming

Ohio State men's tennis won a national title which maybe you're super pumped about and maybe you aren't, but the fact is that a natty is a natty and they don't happen every day.

In fact, nothing ever just happens, especially in sports, and especially not in major college sports. And yet, Ohio State has become very successful not just in basketball and football, but in semi and not so semi-niche sports like hockey, wrestling, tennis, and hell, synchronized swimming. That's a credit to the athletes and coaches who accomplished that, but it's also a credit to the guy who put them in the position to have long-term success.
