So the Thad-5 goes 35-4, plays a hell of a game in the championship game, wins a Big-10 and B-10 Tourney title. Not too shabby. I can't even imagine what these guys would be like if they all came back. Either way, with the talent Thad is bringing in, it won't be 45 years before our next trip back.

Hats off to each and every one of those kids, but particularly Oden. What a monster. If this was his last game in Scarlet and Grey, it's been a pleasure to watch.

They don't have our number. They have everybody's number.

They are the best in the game. We played close to our best and didn't even come close to beating them. If we had the Lewis of the early rounds, and the Conley of the middle rounds, and the Oden of this game, we might have had a chance. But that's what happens when you play a better team. They make your stars play worse. And they all have to play perfect to win.

Unlike January, no shame in this loss. We came prepared, played hard and with heart, and lost.

This sucks to say, but it's part of history, appreciate that you've seen it. I wish our bucks could have won, but it's a great bunch of kids that won. We lost to the best, we came this far and that's nothing to be ashamed of. I love my Buckeyes.

Really, I don't think we played any where close to our best. They had nothing to do with us missing wide open shots tonight.....

Damn, we had so many chances to turn our fate by draining one of those break away threes with momentum in our favor, but just couldn't find one. It is too bad because we outplayed UF everywhere inside that line.

Big ups to Humphries. He had a dagger every time we came close.

It just came down to Florida getting all the loose balls, the big threes, and the great free throw shooting. Noah was 2 for 7 from the line vs. UCLA and hasn't missed tonight. We definitely got their best shot but didn't quite have enough. Good effort by the guys, if we had a couple of those open three's fall maybe it would have been a different story...

I take solace in the fact that we weren't out-played, out-hustled or out-schemed. I can deal with just being flat out-shot from 3 point land. I wish it hadn't played out that way, but this game won't really leave a bad taste in my mouth. Great game, great season. Hopefully Oden will come back next year to win his championship.

Fuck Michigan

I'm proud of them too but that last time I felt like this was when I was a little kid and it seemed like no matter what we always lost to Michigan in football. I am proud of my buckeyes and love them but I HATE FLORIDA.

My question is where do I have to go to voice displeasure with Ivan Harris play without threats of getting banned?

He played a terrible game and is a prime reason why the Buckeyes lost tonight. He shot 1 of 1/10 from the field, and was abused on defense all night.

If speaking the truth gets you banned, then ban me.

I don't hate Ivan Harris personally or I don't wish him ill will. I am simply stating he played a bad game.

I'm very proud of these guys. If anyone gives me shit about being a Buckeye I will defend these guys with everything i've got. Still hurts to lose an NC though. Not looking forward to work tomorrow.

I think there is a chance these guys all come back though.
