2019-2020 Ohio State Men's Basketball (Official Thread)

next year's roster, as of right now:

fifth-year senior (walker)
third-year junior (washington)
third-year junior (muhammad)
fourth-year junior (sueing)
fifth-year junior (towns)
fourth-year junior (jallow)
third-year junior (ahrens)
first-year freshman (brown)
fourth-year senior (young)
second-year sophomore (liddell)
first-year freshman (key)
second-year sophomore (diallo)

the roster is obviously not complete. someone has to go (edit: someone now gone). more than one player may depart and another may be added. regardless, that's a ton of experience.

OHIO STATE MEN'S BASKETBALL 77, MICHIGAN 63
The rival basketball programs had very similar seasons as both started hot, faded in the middle and then surged down the stretch.

That's why the matchup between Ohio State and Michigan was so important on March 1. Both teams were looking to validate their resurgence against a ranked opponent.

The Buckeyes had control of the game in the first half with an eight-point lead, but the Wolverines chipped away to make it a 32-29 affair at halftime. Howard's squad came out hot in the second half and took a four-point lead before Ohio State battled back to trade blows with Michigan.

It was knotted up at 54 with seven minutes to play when the Buckeyes went on their decisive run. Ohio State outscored Michigan 14-4 over the following four-and-a-half minutes to seal the win.

OHIO STATE MEN'S BASKETBALL 61, MICHIGAN 58
The Buckeye Basketball matchup against the Wolverines in Ann Arbor was nearly as physical as the football game that was played there three months earlier.

Kaleb Wesson bullied his way to a solid game, scoring 23 points while hauling in 12 rebounds. The Buckeyes needed every bit of it as the game was played in a one-possession bubble for almost the entirety of the second half.

The back-and-forth nature came down to the free-throw line in the final minute. A wild play between Zavier Simpson and Kyle Young sent both to the free throw line, where each made both attempts. Ohio State led by one when C.J. Walker was fouled and sent to the free throw line, where he drained both to put the Buckeyes up by three. Eli Brooks had a look for three with five seconds left but missed.

It was a team that could have made the S16 or just as easily could have lost to a 12 or 11 seed in the first round. I think we were probably a Round of 32 and done again (seems to be Holt's average), but we will never know.
