07:16 AM ET 03.05 | NBC's Brian Williams may know coach Rob as "the guy I mistook for Reggie Love'' but in this market he's Craig Robinson, miracle worker. ... in fact, coach Rob has done so well in Year 1 of a six-year contract which instructs him to walk on water and get OSU back to the NCAA Tournament that some of us are already speculating about how much longer the Beavers can keep this guy. As in, better look out, or St. John's or Maryland or some team back east is liable to steal him away, even though there is a hefty $1 million buyout at this early stage of his contract.

The last I checked, old Gary hasn't been doing all that well. He does have an upset win versus the Tarheels, but his program has been in decline for several seasons.
