The QB is the most important position period, and when you QB is not getting it done, so goes the team. Everyone appreciates JT's commitment to the team over the years, but Urban seriously needs to consider a change. I have no idea what JT may be thinking, but even he has to realize that he's...

WyoBuck...your summary is on the money, but even more so is the uncertainty of what next year holds. The void at Center is key in my mind. Your big guy HAS to occupy part of the other teams game plan, and this is not the case with Amir or Trey. I also think that LordJeffBuck's stats tell an...

Craft may have owned Appling, but Payne owned everything else. I have much respect for that guy, and hope that MSU goes far.

Heres the deal...a well know and successful pro golfer once was asked why he kept finishing in the top 10 but had not won. His reply was that while he may not have won, the fact that he was in a position to win was just as important. This is the difference between Matta and others like Ayers...

You mean Bill "the foul magnet" Robinson

Well, I can't say I'm too surprised at the loss. This game just showed that this years team was average at best. Too many turnovers, and poor shooting. Not the recipe for success. Gonna miss AC and Smith Jr, and wish them the best. Thad...you have to find some aggressive big men, and for...

I've aged 10 years watching them in this tourney. Ugly is an understatement, but the wins are sweet!

So good to see this win. Many thanks to Craft and Smith Jr. for all they have done for Buckeye Nation.

I hear ya Taosman, most don't realize that Winfield was on that crew, and I've never seen him as anything but a thug ever since. ....talk about a blast from the past.

They have a 6-9 guy named David Bell who is 3 star ranked by Rivals. The 2014 class is ranked #8. The others are all in the Rivals 100..The shooting guard is a big time scorer. Then there are 2 Strong Forwards, one smooth guy like QRoss, and a smaller guy like Smith Jr. Sounds like this Bell kid...

Kippy, thanks for the reply. I would agree that the players around Craft, and his familiarity in the BIG are a big reason for this years results. This season has become very frustrating, especially after such a good start. I think like all Buckeye fans, we want them to win every game, and while...

What I said was that they do not have another leader. As far as why he drives to the basket...I know why and so does everyone else, but all you have to do is look at the math to realize that it's not working . The refs aren't calling the fouls, and too often he is blocked. I've resigned to the...

So sad, and next week in Mich St...sigh. We make the same observations after each loss, and hope that they can turn things around. But no, same ole dumb stuff. These are the streakiest shooters I've ever seen. They have no clue how to play against a zone defense. Their success percentages for...

Officiating controlled this game, and that's too bad. Not sure if they are trying to prep teams for the tourney or not, but there were so many ticky tack fouls called, it just ruins the flow of the game for everyone. My tips for coach are as follows: 1. We do better when we play up tempo. 2. You...

Craft will never play in the NBA, or even Europe. He's a very good college defender, and he knows this. He plans to be a doctor, and will be very successful at that.
