2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

There's is discussion on 11W that OSU's basketball NIL is ranked 12th in the Big Ten and TCUN is ranked 5th nationally (per something Jardy stated). I have no idea how accurate that is, but if relatively close then it's no wonder May is where he's at and Diebler has the bench he does.
I'm not an insider by any means, even I can see OSU didn't spend in the last offseason. Tilly is German-born, which means his NIL options are more limited, and logically speaking that had to impact his decision as OSU's meager offering was comparable to what others could offer ... and he was the best transfer OSU got. Cupps and Ojianwuna, both coming off injuries (and Ojianwuna in fact missing this season because of it) were obviously not guys who would command significant dollars last year. Noel was a local guy who played at Wright State, again not someone you would expect would require big money to come to OSU. Bynum is the only guy they brought in that looks like he could have gotten some decent NIL offers from other schools, and it's not even clear he would have been in line for big money. I do believe some hesitancy with uncertainty regarding the Commission coming & restructuring of OSU's NIL collectives, along with the obvious need to devote most resources to football, were factors in OSU being hesitant to release substantial NIL funds for basketball last year.

Latest Celebrity 'Obit' posts

I listened to most of the Tigers games on a transistor radio back in ‘68.

I got Denny McLain’s autograph (which represents 50% of the autographs I ever solicited in my life), that was the year Denny won 31 games! Crazy year for pitchers, the WS opponent Cardinais had Bob Gibson, whose ERA for the regular season was 1.12, and that’s not a typo. After that season they lowered the mound.

But Lolich got in done in the WS, RIP, Mickey.

p.s. - for those wondering, the only other autograph I ever got was from a Miss Universe.

I don’t think her signing a restraining order against you counts as an autograph….

2027 OH LB Brayton Feister (Verbal Offer)

Hoban planned on him playing both ways at rb and mike. He did exactly that.

Ted Ginn jr graduated at 19 in high school as did hundreds of other buckeyes. Worked out well for us in the past. No one’s list? Over 30 divisions 1 schools have offered including our Buckeyes.
I made that post almost 4mos ago. I no longer care about his age and have stated that

^^^ As he said, total pond scum.
And let's not forget that this shit dates back for well over a century. From Fielding Yost using teams of paid mercenaries who had used up their eligibility at Eastern colleges to beat up on high school teams to the university backing Yost in his refusal to follow Big Ten rules in the 10's to put the football program under the authority of the administration and faculty resulting in them being kicked out of the conference until they complied...the original sin of lack of institutional control.

The entire historical DNA of that athletic program is one big dangling chromosome of dirt.
