Was in Ace Hardware on 5th Ave yesterday and Ivan came in with Colin White. I'm about 6'5 with my shoes on and it was ridiculous standing next to him. I used to think it would be cool to be 7ft but F that! What a hassle that has to be.

Btw both kids were very polite. Told them keep their heads up it was a good year just tear em up next year. Definitely a fan of both but they both need to add some muscle to bang in the B1G

You could have got the inside scoop on where White will be playing next year.

Ohio State Women's Synchronized Swimming (34x National Champions)

Back to Stanford. It appears to me that the sports that got cut were NOT Director's Cup point-getters. Could have missed one, but hey! All the Stanford AD has to do is send out notices to the Venture Capitalist up on I-270, and their pocket change could fund all 11. PS, football is the lowest of the sports ranked at Stanford. Yeah, kinda question tOSU being 4th in the final rankings. But synchro is the most dominant sport at The Ohio State University, by at least ten miles.

Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

Wow! Concisely put. McDuff seems to be able to recruit top-of-the-line backcourt talent, Jacy, Jaloni, etc. but he falls down terribly on front court talent. After watching the women's Dance this year, agree that Elsa, while serviceable, and did in fact grow this year, needs some development and some back-up that are more than placeholders. Don't know if the team faltered because they were winded, as McDuff plays with a very shortened bench. When some of the bench players got in, they played adequately. Kitt especially, but as we know, McDuff plays a small, quick group of guards, plus one person designed to act as a screener, and a convenient pass catcher. Elsa needs to learn how to play facing the basket, as too many times, she was looking for someone to pass to, and she was standing AT the foul line! while the defender was deep in the paint, knowing she wasn't going to 1) shoot, or 2) drive.

Game Thread Oregon at tOSU, Sat. Nov. 7th, TBA

calibuck
The rankings could take quite a beating on that day. Oregon has become the thorn in the Buckeye's side these days. Hate that they can 'rent' Ohio players to suit up up there. But guess Nike dollars are like petro dollars. Anyway, might be a #1 v #2 on that Saturday. If still lived on the West coast, might be worth the trip, but don't so won't.

Game Thread tOSU at Nebraska, Sat. Nov. 21st, TBA

calibuck
Losing Raiola will give them a personal 'edge' like no one's business. Whether the talent is there to back it up is questionable. Now really in the 'know' to know whether they gained more talent in the portal than they lost. So regardless, their first team might give a fight, their two's won't be in the same league as the Buckeyes, so color this a win for the good guys. 48-14.

Game Thread tOSU at Texas, Sat. Sept. 12th, TBA

One thing you can bet on, UT will have the best team money can buy. Whether they perform like that, kinda up in the air. PS, seem to recollect that tOSU was in the 'hunt' for Brandon Baker, but got outbid by the Longhorns. Anyone know definitively how well he's doing? Or is it a 'whew' that he went to Texas (a la Felix Ojo)? Anyway, I get a bang out of seeing which 'next best things' that was/were going to tOSU find out who cratered, and contrarywise, cringe when look at the pre-season mags and see someone tOSU went after on the ratings lists.....

April Fools' throwback: Mark Cuban stages fight with a ref

Twelve years ago on April 1, Mark Cuban took advantage of his reputation as the NBA's most vocal and hands-on owner to pull off a wonderful April Fools' Day prank.

Remembering Mark Cuban’s April Fool’s Day prank.​

The year was 2003. Our feelings about Mark Cuban were far less complicated than they are today. He pulled off this greatness:

During a timeout in the Mavericks game against the then-New Orleans Hornets, Cuban began to argue with a ref, as he had done many times, but this was actually an actor dressed up as ref, and Cuban took the battle to another level, repeatedly shoving and then trying to wrestle the official.

The Dallas owner later told the Dallas Morning News that he was nervous the gambit would fall flat.

“We did it, and I remember thinking, I hope this doesn’t crater,” Cuban said. “When I stood up and there was the first shove, I could hear the whole place gasp. Then we went at it and I could hear everybody going nuts. Then I started laughing and blew it.”
