OSU's new head coach is looking to turn the program around, but what would it take to be named best coach in the conference?
After a 12-20 season, OSU fired seven-year coach Mike Boynton and landed on Western Kentucky’s Steve Lutz to lead the program. Despite only having three seasons of head coaching experience, Lutz has had immense success, making the NCAA Tournament every season. Although it is unlikely, if he can carry that success to Stillwater, he could be in the running for the Big 12 Coach of the Year.
Although OSU’s recent tournament appearances are not that scarce, an improvement from four Big 12 wins to the middle of the pack will get Lutz some attention. If he is able to do that, a signature win against Houston, Kansas or any other team at the top of the Big 12 could get him the award.
