Mick Cronin will never... ever... ever... EVER be the head coach at Ohio State. There's a lot of history there and OSU would never hire him even if he wanted to be hired (which I doubt). Cronin is forever blackballed at OSU.

My understanding is Chris Mack doesn't want any part of OSU. I don't think he's right for that job anyhow. I don't think he wants to be involved in some of the donor/alumni stuff required at OSU.

Billy Donovan could very well be in play. He's very close with both Urban and Thad. The timing of this move is suggestive of a possible NBA move. Let's be honest, if there was any chance of OSU landing him, it would be now as opposed to back in March or April when Oklahoma City was still playing. His season is over now. The OKC job is clearly not the most attractive now that the Thunder are (at best) fourth or fifth in the West pecking order. Since Donovan is familiar with all the pluses and minuses of coaching at a major football factory, he could make an informed decision. And since he knows Urban and Thad so well already, he would get some honest feedback.
