In todays recruiting, 2027 may as well be the next decade. There is still time to go from meh to hey, and go from short to Denzel Ward.

And some kids just don't want to go to Ohio State.

Again, meh.

Sounds like a dream marketing matchup between USC and the Pedsters.

And is that an old style light bulb or one of the newer curlicue items? Asking for @LovelandBuckeye

Curlicue if they have any sense of class at all.

A front rim friendly bounce 3. Gotta be kidding.

There’s just a losing stench that won’t go away.

This game wasn't as bad as it coulda been but yea these are the types of games we need to start winning to flip the script and eliminate that stench. Gotta get em at home cause we really likely aren't on the road, the better teams in the conference.

I think @DaveyBoy has a point - Mobley is playing more defense and it's taking his legs. Those Free Throws looked kinda rough for him.

Do you think this would be successful? Honestly asking.

From a business/legal perspective? No doubt. It’s done every day.

Fans wouldn’t give a rats ass. It would change nothing in the field.

Illinois outscored OSU at the foul line by 14 points, won by 8 points. The most efficient place to score is the foul line. Analytics should tell you that you want the advantage of scoring more foul shots than your opponent, and yet here we are year after year, watching OSU foul their opponents and lose at the foul line in close games. I'm not saying that's the only reason they lost, but clearly to me one of the biggest things that needs to change in this program is they need more players who can play defense without fouling, and on the flipside are able to draw contact and convert at the stripe.

No idea on timing but that's what I'd do and how I'd do it. Central Ohio sports ventures LLC or whatever, playing every game as The Ohio State Buckeyes. The University gets a big share of the revenue as a licensing deal. Name, mascot, stadium the works.

Players get a GI Bill like voucher to go to school there at some point and free lifetime healthcare. Let the quality of the education and health care be a differentiator for talent acquisition.

Have you seen ND's schedule for 2026? I'm not saying they're trying to rig their way to not losing any games, but their only true road games are @ Purdue, Syracuse and North Carolina. They have only 4 opponents that had a .500 record this season or better (Navy, Miami, SMU & USC), and none are true road games. Wisconsin, who had one of the worst records in the B1G this season, will be one of ND's toughest opponents away from home.

Oh, FFS

Nobody can convince me that we don’t have the most shooter friendly rims in the conference. At NW, Minnesota, Rutgers, PennState, to name a few, the rims literally make a clunk when the ball hits the rim.

And that was going against the ACC game, too. The SEC game, the "best game ever in the best league ever" went up against absolutely nothing.
