Post Haste: Frank Solich got some love from ESPN; It wasn't a good weekend for Ohio basketball, though

Ohio's football coach was ranked high on ESPN's list.

Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Monday March 14, 2016:

Ohio sports fans seeking solace after a rough tournament week need look no further.

ESPN recently released a ranking of the top FBS college football coaches as players. Ohio coach Frank Solich cracked the top 20.

He was an All-Big Eight fullback in 1965 when he averaged 5.4 yards per carry, according to the ranking.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers only lost four games during his playing time there. Solich was inducted into the Nebraska football Hall of Fame in 1992.
