Ohio State Women's Basketball (2023-24 B1G CHAMPS)

Geeeez, it looks like many different, but talented pieces of a basketball puzzle, make their way to tOSU. One would think that 'someday', one would be able to take these varied ingredients and turn them into a magnificent creation. Does one think that maybe this could be the year? Let's hope so......tOSU needs some of the women's teams to 'step it up' as in winning Natti's. Go Bucks!

Just sayin'; I know it is not a NCAA sanctioned sport; but has any other college team dominated the National Championships (in any sport) like this one?

ScriptOhio, am truly aware of some of the women's elite sports, the above being probably foremost. Also pistol and fencing. I'll bet the above syncro team doesn't have but a sprinkling of 5*'s among them, but NO one can question their teamwork......PS, would wager vcash that many if not all were JO swimmers at one time or another. Anyway, the point is made that tOSU's women's sports are not competing for national titles as much as the men's sports. I for one (with a daughter), would like to see that change......how do we/they do it? Dunno. Better coaches? Go Bucks

MISSING HOME.
Quarantine is hard enough when you're not an international student legally unable to return to your home country. That's been Ohio State women's hoops star Dorka Juhasz's life these past few months, and she's starting to feel the pain.

Even though she uses FaceTime daily to connect with her father, Zsolt, mother Hajnalka Balazs and yellow Labrador retriever Jackie (named for actor Jackie Chan), it is not the same as being there.

“To be honest, it is getting a little worse,” Juhasz said last week. “Right after the season, it was bad because all my teammates went home and I couldn’t. Then it got a little better, but now we are getting closer to the end of summer and it is getting worse.”

There is homesick, and there is homesick without knowing when you can get home.

Juhasz hopes Hungary eases travel restrictions in early July, but even then she is not sure she wants to risk the possibility of leaving the U.S. and not being allowed back in for fall semester and the beginning of basketball.

Finding your footing on foreign soil does not make things easier. After two years in Columbus, the United States does not feel so foreign to Juhasz anymore, but it is not home. It is not her grandmother’s goulash or being able to hug Jackie around his neck.

“Sometimes I make chicken paprikash or Hungarian crepes, so I try to cook a little bit, just to not miss Hungary that much” she said. “But it is different from how my grandma or mom makes it.”

I feel you on the food, Dorka. I haven't been the same human being since I've lived outside of Skyline territory – though my arteries are probably in the process of crafting a "Thank You" letter.

Agree with the above. Have always felt that in a tight game, tOSU gets outcoached at the end. We watch all the games that are televised here in Cali, and the huddles are the same....Maybe I'm missing something, but STILL would like to see some of the assts. go out and take the players aside to discuss what they can do more/differently to get open, etc. Go Bucks!
