Ohio coach Tim O'Shea must think the Bobcats will be pretty good next season. He's got a loaded schedule for a mid-major. Ohio, which should be the favorite with Ball State in the MAC, will play Kentucky in Cincinnati, at DePaul, Wisconsin, Providence and Brown, and host Virginia, St. Bonaventure and Navy. Ohio won at North Carolina in the Bobcats' marquee non-conference game last season. The DePaul game will match O'Shea against Dave Leitao, two years removed from when they were ***istants at the same time in the Big East. O'Shea at Boston College and Leitao at Connecticut, proving how ***istants are getting more shots to be head coaches as these two take over two programs in the Midwest.
