Just because I didn't 'call' the best player of all time. Look the kid played hard, can play D and was a great student athlete. Thank you for that. But ... lets be real.

No one ever said he was the best player of all time, and his offensive shortcomings have been well documented. However, a left handed compliment toward someone who worked hard and represented the university well is pretty classless.

It isn't that as much as being tactless about it. We all know about his offensive struggles, but why bother bringing it up? You aren't going to be supported making statements about that here.

Someone needs a reality check.



He was a 45.9% shooter over his Buckeye career (33% from 3). Just for reference, LQR is 44.8% (36.4% from 3)... Deshaun Thomas was 47.8% (34.2% from 3). He's definitely not a sharp shooter but his percentages are right up there with the two most recent season leading-scorers. His offensive game gets a bad rap for the hitch in his shot but he wasn't as bad as many think he was.

Here we go with the facts again. :roll1: Why can't anyone post ridiculous, baseless comments without everyone bringing facts and their own opinions up?

Facts are highly over-rated. Personally, I wouldn't have made it through the season without mrredsbills unbiased and pithy insights, such as "Craft, if you shoot this, I'll kick you in the nuts..." I saw it all so clearly then. If I could have, I might have kicked myself.

Aaron Craft has represented Ohio State with incredible class. He will be sorely missed.

Thanks Aaron for representing The Ohio State University with such class over the last 4 years. I would say good luck to him, but I don't think he'll need it. I'm quite certain that he will be successful in life no matter what he chooses...kid is just a winner and we all know that. Man will he be missed next season.

I get a two week ban for suggesting someone give Alex Boone a beer during the National Championship game and this fuck stick is allowed to hang around?
