 COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Thad Matta insists he wants to stay at Ohio State, trying to quiet speculation he is a candidate for the Indiana coaching job.
Matta, in his second year as coach of the Buckeyes, has an $11 million, eight-year contract that runs through 2012. Hoosiers coach Mike Davis announced last week he will resign at the end of the season.
"I've said this before, I'm as happy as I've ever been, at Ohio State," said Matta, who has lured one of the top recruiting classes to Ohio State for next season. "Our goal coming in here was to build this program into a top-20 program and we're on the verge of doing that."
