Thornton is a beast and Dallin better eat his Wheaties today. Plays really hard, can shoot, drive, etc….. former Top 50 guy who has gotten better every year. Just a strong physical dude who has a lot on the line today as @tonyburnertt pointed out. Buckeyes will be keyed up and ready to go - I hope we are! Let’s get a W.

Are you familiar with former Sixer (and Razorback) Ricky Council IV?

Wow, that’s getting into George Foreman territory. George’s boys are named George Jr., George III, George IV, George V, and George VI. (He also had 7 daughters. They got different names.)

Yup. I just wanted to mention RCIV because he plays basketball, so topical, and there was a chance that he played on the same team as one of his 2 brothers or the brothers were teammates. Or the went to the same school and someone could be confused why Ricky Council was playing for the 12th straight year.

Foreman also named one of his daughters Georgetta. He should’ve used other feminine variations on George for all of them. Georgina, umm…Georgia…I’m blanking on any more.

We did not. He’s their second best player for sure so should make a big difference for tonight

Since I tend to avoid posting during games, with rare exception, I just want to get it on the record that I’m terribly disappointed in our play and everyone should be fired and a bunch of other miscellaneous comments about various players being lousy and the coaching inept.

Am I doing it right??

Talk to you after the game or probably tomorrow since I’m old and tired.

Never like to see an injury—except maybe in Grayson Allen’s case. But this will really hurt given their already thin depth. Puts a heavy load on Thornton’s shoulders.

Looks like Taison Chapman has been getting increased PT in last 5 games and is 10/17 in 3pt in that time.

I’m so hype we got Gus Johnson on the call tonight

Was about to say the same. Huge treat. The only other broadcast team I’d love to have is the Eagle-Raftery combo (but no Bruce Pearl please)

OSU coach doesn’t have a beard and his fade is sloppy af. Gonna be a cakewalk.

Do not like this court

This court and the plain jane grey OSU unis look like an 80’s generic aisle.

GrĂźnloh looks so much better on defense so far

Letting GrĂźnloh play pretty physical there

We need to change this starting lineup. I understand what Odom is trying to do with consistency but we’re going to get down early in the ncaas against a good team and it is going to be tough to overcome

He fouled a guy with his body pretty good.

We still look like shit imho
