It's a shame the game can't be seen on any reasonable channel (where I live I have to pay extra for BTN on Direct TV, no way I'm also paying for BTN Plus). Fortunately the Bucks are taking care of business, 62-38 with 11:10 remaining.

Not getting to watch the game but seems like we've given up way too many points in the second half. Hopefully BTN will replay it later on their regular channel

Men’s Basketball: Kaleb Wesson drops three 3s in Ohio State’s blowout 89-61 win against South Carolina State
If Kaleb Wesson attempted a 3 in a game during his freshman campaign, Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann likely had something to say about it after the game.
The 6-foot-9, 270-pound center, without a doubt, is known more for his interior presence than his shooting ability after all, and his attempted 3s during his first collegiate campaign trended more toward bricks than splashes.
This season, however, Holtmann has noted the improving 3-point shooting of the now-sophomore forward. And it showed off in Ohio State’s 89-61 victory Sunday against South Carolina State, with Wesson drilling a career-high 3-of-4 shots from beyond the arc, leading to a game-high 18 points.
“He was hunting those 3s today, and I think most of them were good,” Holtmann said, examining the numbers after putting his glasses on to review the stat sheet. “I thought Kaleb really set the tone with his aggressiveness offensively.”
South Carolina State head coach Murray Garvin said after the game there was little his team could really do to prepare for Wesson. The focus had been on Ohio State’s guards given their success early. Not to mention, he doesn’t have the size to defend someone like Wesson.
“We tried, but unfortunately, we can’t grow a guy to be 6-foot-9, 270 right now,” Garvin said, noting the only athletes at South Carolina State capable of guarding Wesson might be suited up in pads on the football team. “I haven’t seen that before where a post player that big, it’s almost like [Shaquille O’Neil] in the late 90s.”
When the clock finally hit 0, and the two teams were mercifully allowed to return to their respective locker rooms, Ohio State (4-0) had been successful on 55 percent of its shots from the field, while South Carolina State (1-4) made just 37 percent. Junior forward Damani Applewhite led the Bulldogs with 15 points while tying a team-high with six rebounds.
The Buckeyes generated offensive success with fluid ball movement throughout the night, with the team racking up 18 assists compared to three from the Bulldogs.
The charity stripe also proved particularly generous to Ohio State, with the Buckeyes knocking down 26-of-35 free-throw attempts, surpassing the previous season-high of 16 from Nov. 7 against Cincinnati.
The Buckeyes took their time before establishing control of the game. At 15:46, Ohio State led just 8-6, having already committed three turnovers.
That all changed after the media timeout. Ohio State proceeded to go on a 12-0 run to push its lead out to 20-6, with freshman guard Duane Washington contributing five of the team’s points, including a 3 from the wing. Washington finished the game with 14 points.
A pair of free throws from South Carolina State freshman guard Allen Hatchett broke up the run, but the Wesson show continued, this time with Kaleb’s older brother, junior forward Andre Wesson, scoring four points on a mid-range jumper and dunk to put his team ahead 28-12.
Ohio State slumped, as much as a team can when ahead 33-12, with 6:15 remaining, going without a field goal for the next 4:34. But the Buckeyes still managed five free throws to limit the Bulldogs’ run to 9-5 before Kaleb Wesson splashed home his third 3 of the game with 1:41 left in the half.

Ahrens' defense is just not ready for playing time yet. Someone help me find a player comparison for Washington. Right now my admittedly less than perfect working comparison is a lesser Gilbert Arenas.

Veni. Vidi. Vici.
I'll be at Friday's game--wouldn't miss a game at St. John. Love that place. Was there the last time OSU played there against Cal in the NIT. Long live the place.
