  • They'll probably guard each other too.

    • Even though I'd think OSU will play quite a bit of zone, probably more often than not.

      • Good first half but Zona eventually figured out the zone. A mediocre year mercifully draws to a close. Sadly, this was probably the least inspiring team that Matta has had. Virtually unlikeable.

        • Seriously? You had Craft, Smith Jr and Ross last year and Russell this yearand THIS team was unlikeable?

            • From my vantage point this was the most likeable OSU team ever. It both had Russell who is a joy to watch but didn't win enough with him for me to get pissed off about that. I wish every season of OSU basketball was just like this one.

              • Russell was fun but it was frustrating knowing that he'd only be here a year and was stuck with a bunch of bums for companions. The seniors generally won't be missed.

                On another note the wrasslin team did pick up a national title. Yay

                • Pleasantly surprised by the effort yesterday!

                    Last year's team was eye-bleedingly awful on offense, but they grinded out wins and overachieved. This year's team was absolutely less than it's individual parts and played with a maddening lethargy. It made it easier for me not to care so much because they didn't seem to care so much.

                      • So is Russell gone for sure?

                        • I can't imagine him coming back. He's apparently a top 5 pick.

                          • I would take him first overall. Okafor is the next Big Al, which is no big deal. Russell has a good chance at being the next Steph Curry.

                            • IMO, he's not as ready to contribute right away as some other guys, but I could definitely see his game developing over the next 2-3 years to the point where he's the clear #1 in this class.

                              • Who is more ready at the top? I hate to cross over into slavish boostering, and it's all based on fit and roster etc., but IMO he's a good shot at ROY. None of the other wings (Johnson, Oubre, Winslow, Porzingis, Hezonja) have games as well defined as his. Bigs take a bit, and Mudiay's a total wildcard. Russell's 3 will get him through the early stages until he can start using his other skills. Okafor I could see producing very well very early on offense, but also struggling with foul trouble.
