2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

I was mad last night for sure, but not at the boys. They battled and fought like hell against a well coached team, tough crowd and the striped shirts and still were there at the end.

Been tough on Tilly this year and probably got close to the line yesterday about the foul shots. Poor form on my part, won't happen again folks. It's just hard to not get emotional when they keep taking us right to the edge but fall inches short time and again. Bleeding and breathing scarlet and gray is trying sometimes, haha.

Bestbuck, not entirely certain he's 'lost' this team. tOSU women are talented, but not THAT talented. McDuff's press is working, but certainly not the level of Jacy et al. Jalone is a treasure, simply put. Elsa is maturing in her play, and Kennedy has shown great talent. The other two guards, certainly can chip in the 3-pointers, and do. Don't believe Kitt has fully recovered, her feet aren't as quick, and her 'nose for the ball' is missing. Haven't seen Hobbs in a while, more as a breather for Elsa. Gotta admit, when stats came out, was surprised that tOSU had a 15-0 run to put the game away.....guessed was napping during that. Great win, and while not glad the USC player (Ju Ju?) was out, because then USC would have killed the Buckeyes. So, say what you will about McDuff, the Buckeyes don't come back like that unless they're being led. Jaloni seems to be a leader by actions, rather than one who chats up the players. Maybe Katie is providing some of the coaching?

You make some valid points and what may be lacking is the on floor leadership but it's hard to tell. When you're following a legend like Jacy, everything is inferior, right? Lol

The comeback honestly surprised me considering how that game was going. Also could be some rust with that weird ass schedule. Maybe the B1G Tourney will tighten everything up? They've committed a lot more turnovers lately but that could also be rising competition. All I know is we get this win against ttun, I'll forgive everything I've said about McGuff lately. Just lately though, :sneaky:

Well, the Texas teams at this level will always get a good/great DC. Not unlike the Buckeyes. And the Texas oil money is flowing as well. Texas crude #2 is what, 75-90 dollars a barrel, so there's plenty to spend on athlete beef. And unlike many donors, this oil money flows in each and every day. So appears to be an endless supply of NIL money. And might imagine that the Texas recruits might get offered plum work jobs for parents etc. Just an educated guess..;;

I wonder how much of that money keeps flowing if titles aren't won in Austin in the next few years
