2023-2024 Ohio State Men's Basketball (apathy, depression, hope?)

Low down from Jardy on the scrimmage:

- Battle out of town tending to family issue, should be back soon.

- Royal out due to a minor injury, also should return soon

- Gayle and Thornton with rough games

- Felix and Zed both started and played a lot together (probably out of necessity)

- Bonner and Mahaffey played well, but I assume that is relative considering they got beat by 20.

So I think the 7 available probably means 7 from their likely 9 man rotation. With considering Chatman is out as well, is basically the same thing. Hardman-Etzler-Parks aren't gonna make up much, if any, difference for Battle-Royal-Chatman being out.

So not great coming off the promising Dayton win, but no major injuries to speak of. Also, since they were basically forced to play Key and Okpara together and they got crushed, maybe it is more likely they pass on that experiment when Battle and Royal are available.
100% they won't play 2 bigs together much because they need one of them to stretch the defense and I doubt they'll do that. You will be better off with a faster, better-shooting lineup than 2 bigs. Plus, roster depth-wise it also makes little sense to play 2 bigs when the wings are where the numbers are greater.

Time to get 100% all-in on the hoops teams now. I don't want to think or talk about that thing that didnt happen last Saturday. The boys are looking better than they have in a long while and the ladies are one of the best teams in the country so let's get behind them both and see if we can't get a championship out of this winter season! O-H!!
