When visited tOSU, got chased out of the gym when practice started. My point being, that we don't know what happens in a non-game setting. Would imagine that one coach takes the centers to one basket, forward to another, and guards to yet another to work on their skills etc. Scrimmages should be a reward, and the work-outs should make the games seem easier. Kinda why am surprised that the position coach doesn't take players aside during a TO to remind them what they need to do (in that situation or somesuch). PS, see that in football all the time, the WRs get with Hartline who goes over what needs to happen, etc. But do agree that McGuff recruits GUARDS well. Still am a tad pissed that Dorkas and the other forward both fled after a season in scarlet and gray.

My bad

Am thinking that while he was at tOSU, there were some superior players ahead of him. Now, at the pro level, not so much. A great testimony to Noah, certainly, but also to WRU, where the 5*s are stacked like firewood. But!. they take when they've learned here, and put it to work at other places, notably the pro level. Someone above noted his blocking skills. Well, as commonly known (?), at tOSU, a WR doesn't see the field unless they can demonstrate a downfield blocking ability. Another reason why WRs flock to Ohio State. Hartline's training (based on his real-world experiences). Anyway, don't mean to hijack, but trying to point out why Noah (and others) have continued success in the league.

Please tell me we no longer have interest in him.

Anyone watching the new Daredevil?

Probably the dopest line in MCU history when Murdock told the crooked cop that he'd need a few more crooked cops the next time they meet. Had me ready to defund the police

Who cares.

A fine idea. I swear that after Buster Douglas that Tyson that there was a story about the Mayor of Cincy calling the Mayor of Columbus and telling him that naming the outer belt around Columbus the James Buster Douglas Way was a bad idea… “just look at us, we have Pete Rose way…”.

A true buckeye with questionable parenting skills.

Exactly, I mean, I don't expect next season to be any better under Jake Diebler.

I expect next season to be worse if anything. People will still make excuses for Diebler though and want to give him a 3rd season. The Athletic Department is gonna be in no hurry to make a move, Diebler is a lame duck but he's cheap and they can just keep proclaiming success because of the football program alone.

In 2012, Ohio had four teams in the sweet sixteen: Ohio State, Ohio, Xavier, and Cincinnati. This year, we might not get any teams into the tournament at all. Ohio State and Xavier are bubble teams, and Akron is currently projected as a 13 seed.

Former Ohio State basketball player scores his 4000th professional point​

A former Ohio State basketball player has scored his 4000th professional point overseas.



The Ohio State basketball program had a lot of success during the Thad Matta era. He took the team to a national championship and multiple Final Fours. He had multiple NBA players on his teams. The Buckeyes had some of the best teams in history under Matta.

Back in Matta's era, the Buckeyes had a lot of guys play professionally. Other than the NBA guys that they had, they had plenty of other guys play overseas. Even some guys who you wouldn't think were going to be good enough to play professionally ended up playing for a salary.

One of those players is Amedo Della Valle. He played for the Ohio State Buckeyes for three years before deciding to go back home to Italy to play. He has been playing in Serie A, which is the highest level of basketball in the country. Della Valle has been playing great while over there.

Ex-Ohio State basketball player Amedo Della Valle scores his 4000th point

Della Valle recently scored his 4000th point in Serie A. He continues to play well at a high level. His high level of play is surprising, especially considering the fact that he wasn't even a normal part of the rotation for Ohio State. He has turned himself into quite the player.

Della Valle has had a lot of team success over the years. He has won a EuroCup Challenge and an LBA MVP. He has played on a lot of good teams. Della Valle clearly made the right choice to leave Ohio State early to go play professionally. He has made a lot of money.

Della Valle will keep playing as long as he can. He clearly is still good enough to play some good basketball for a few more years. He might end up being one of Matta's most successful players.

Just sayin': Possibly, however, he'll never be #1;, that distinction goes to Mike Conley, Jr.

That wasn't just a RB; it was Saquon-freaking-Barkley, the dude who probably should've won NFL MVP this year. It was an absurd play

I interacted with him until 2010, when I cut him off. He tried making amends with me when this came out, but I said I wanted nothing to do with him.
