I have hated that foul for years. Guy comes in out of control defender goes straight up he tries to contort around him to shoot defensive foul. Just cause he didn't go through his chest make it on the defense.Bunch of second-chances for USC leads to foul shots.
Not only that they stopped trying once the Big Ten left their networks completely. It's pretty patheticESPN's knew play by play sucks the big one. Why do these sites try to fix something not broken. I can't even go back and do the play by play it is horrific to try and use.
I don't play "what if" because the past is what it is, but otherwise I'm with you. They do have a legit shot at the tourney and I'm rooting like crazy for it, and that's especially true if they can find a way to get more healthy (if that's possible) down the stretch. You're right also that we should want the program moving in the right direction overall, as especially with a young coach you can gain some long-term benefits if you keep things going in the right direction.I’m going to watch every game and root for Ohio state to close strong. A few bounces go their way and they beat Pitt, North Carolina and Nebraska. No shame losing to Illinois and scUM had us severely outmatched. Seasons far from over. We could honestly win 5-6 out of the remaining schedule and a few in the B1G tournament and be in. The B1G is deep this year. Not inspiring to squeak in but it’s a step forward and I would love that for Bruce. Let’s get after it!
And the good old Wexner/Strauss news too.between this and the Epstein/Wexner connections... uni not having a great 2026....
I believe very, very few folks give a rat’s ass about what name is on a building, program, institute or whatever. The real villains of the world don’t make charitable gifts.his name needs to go. The endowment is over $8B now. We don't need King Leslie's money.
I would say it does matter if guys look out of position and unprepared. However, Defense and rebounding is about 80% effort at this level because everyone has skill. Guys have to freaking want to win more than the opponent.
Now you could also blame coaching for not getting in their asses for less than 100% effort too, or sitting hits who aren't, so it's definitely a marriage that has to work.
It definitely helps to be an athletic freak for sure.Well you either get guys who can defend at this level, or you don't. Not just anybody is big, strong, long and athletic enough to do it.
