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

Kinda hard to crash the boards with only one big. McDuff is and will always put a guard first team on the floor. Four littles and one big can work, he's proven that, but when you go up against some height, you get out-rebounded, unless you make an unreasonable number of shots. Certainly the press works, but in the Dance, you're playing against some very good ball handlers, which leads to some easy buckets. Cannot imagine playing Elsa and Hobbs together, they'd get in each other's way, and Kitt seems to be the best assistant glass cleaner on the court. Would like to see Elsa become a 'junkyard dog', but don't believe she's built like that. And, if the opposing forward/center boxes her out, there is zero chance the Buckeyes get the rebound. Has anyone figured how you always get one 'hot' shooter per game?

Those Washington women certainly looked 'blocky'. At least several inches wider than our Buckeyes. Am enjoying watching Kennedy work her magic on D, and the tandem of her and Jaloni is nothing short of fun to watch. Also fun to watch which 3-shooter gets hot for the Buckeyes, and hope they continue to get uncontested looks at the basket. Saw Kitt on the bench in warm-ups, but was participating in huddles, etc. Anyone know why/how she's injured? ETA to return?

She hurt her shoulder in the TCU game, They are hoping she can play at Oregon on Sunday.
