#8 Ohio State vs #9 TCU, Thursday March 19, 1215pm ET, CBS

What happened that caused Dieble to go off on the ncaa and the game? The refs let them play rough or what?

I hope he did. The officiating down the stretch was completely one sided. TCU was allowed to hack our ball handlers and shooters at will and then at the other end they were getting LeBron style just getting breathed on fouls called in their favor.

Another case of the classic officiating logic of the "more physical" team being able to do whatever "because they are just more physical".

Don't believe there was anyone watching TV or in person that didn't know the inbounds was going to Thornton. Maybe that's why there were two TCU guys shadowing him? Maybe shoulda put Thornton as a decoy and thrown to Cupps standing at midcourt? We certainly didn't have a Laettner available. Anyway, great season Buckeyes. An enjoyable watch all season. Do expect a couple changes at assistant coach though.

We only really had 2 guys with any kind of killer instinct, Mobley and Thornton. Bruce didn't have his best game unfortunately but if this team is gong to get to the next level, Bynum, Royal and at least one more have to become killers with a Mobley even getting better. 4 killers and a glue guy can do something special. Hoping Chatman can become the Swiss Army knife, glue guy.

Back to Titus. I'm a put your money where your mouth is kind of guy. Titus was bitching tOSU basketball doesn't get enough NIL money. My question to him would be how much has he given? I think it's kind of unAmerican to decide where other people should spend their money, especially if you haven't put your money there. But then again, maybe that's just me.

Now get off my lawn!
