2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

OSU is still in the thick of the tourney hunt with 5 games left in the regular season. I believe I had said before the USC game they needed to win 2 of 3 vs USC, UVA and Wisconsin, and they managed to do that. Now perhaps the most challenging 3-game stretch of the season, @ MSU, @ Iowa, vs. Purdue. Not one easy game amongst the 3, all individually likely losses, but all quality win opportunities. I feel like just winning 1 of the 3 would help put OSU on the right side of the bubble, pending the outcome of the final 2 games obviously, but I wouldn't necessarily predict that they even win 1 of these 3.

2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

Noel back next game then? Mobley for sure done this season?

With Chatman getting better they would have an 8 man rotation at least, maybe 9 for the first time all year. Not sure that's a difference maker but couldn't hurt
Where are you getting that at? Last I saw, Noel was still in a walking boot. Mobley also doesn't have a definitive return date, as far as I know, the only info is he's going to be out at least a week.

SF/PF Devin Royal (transfer to Villanova)

Royal is one of those guys who can be either boom or bust, and sometimes he switches between the two extremes within the same game. I think a lot of his game is based on getting to his spots and being able to take the same shots he's practiced. Teams that play really physical defense on him tend to throw him off his game. If the opponent isn't good defensively, he can practically score at will.
