2024-2025 College Basketball General Discussion

Cooper Flagg is so much better than every other college player. Doesn’t take long to watch and notice.

Been a long time since there’s been a player that above the rest. I’d say since Anthony Davis at UK.

edit - and he hits a casual buzzer 3 from 30 feet after I typed this.
You must be forgetting about Bronny last year.

The Ohio State Softball (Official Thread)

Not sure even where to look but this has the feel of one of OSU's best softball seasons ever? We ever win it all or make the series?
Looks like theyve won 2 B1G Reg Season titles (90 and 07), 1 B1G Tourney title (07), 12 NCAA Tourney appearances and made the WCWS in 1982.

The 2007 team went 40-18

OSU Men's Basketball Recruiting/Projections/General Discussions

Just sayin': Ohio State basketball didn't get the only Duke 5-star player in the transfer portal that didn't pan out to expectations this past season.

Former Duke basketball five-star recruit hits transfer portal for second season straight
TJ Power is back in the portal.

The Duke basketball program had seven scholarship players hit the transfer portal after the 2024 season, and one of them was TJ Power, a former five-star recruit in the class of 2023. Power ended up transferring from Duke after last season, and now will hit the portal again after one season in his new home.

After a freshman season where Power struggled to see the floor in Durham consistently, he decided to hit the portal in hopes of a change of scenery. Eventually, Power landed at Virginia, where he spent this past season.

There were high hopes for the former big time prospect, but his journey was heavily shaken up after former Hoos head coach Tony Bennett suddenly retired just before the 2024-25 season.

Power remained with the program, however, and began the season as a starter and was expected to be a heavy contributor for a Virginia program that wasn't expected to be very good.

But as the season went on, inconsistent shooting eventually led to Power completely fizzling out of the Cavaliers' rotation almost entirely towards the end of the regular season.

Power logged a total of just 10 minutes of playing time across the final four games he played in, and didn't see the floor at all in four of Virginia's final seven regular season games or Virginia's ACC Tournament loss to Georgia Tech, the lone conference tournament game that Virginia appeared in.

The Shrewsbury, MA native scored zero points in 13 of the 24 games he played in, including the final six games he appeared in this season. Power finished his sophomore campaign averaging 1.3 points and 1.0 rebound per game on 20.5% shooting from the field and 18.2% shooting from three-point range.

It looks like newly hired Virginia head coach Ryan Odom is cleaning house, and now Power will look for a new home for the second straight season.

Ohio State Wrestling (2015/2017/2018 B1G Champs, 2015 National Champs, 2019 National Runners-up)

Brutal…not sure what to say except this was always a possibility. Three guys for sure are leaving based on Flo’s transfer tracker. Hepner, Gonzales, and Welsh. Not sure where Geog lands as he seems like an odd man out if Shumate stays at 197 and Rogotzke stays at 184.

Makes you wonder about Penn State’s room too. They have a log jam up and down that roster and have recruited over guys year after year. Josh Barr was supposed to go at 184 this year. He was a finalist at 197. What does that do for Mirasola? Where does Welsh fit in? Does he take the 184 spot? Good problem to have.

Edit: Quick check on the PSU boards and there are definite mixed feelings. I haven’t combed through all the posts, but there was disbelief at first, to hesitation, to not liking it at all, to iron sharpens iron, and so on.

Edit II: we could be Iowa State. :yow1:
