It was a joy sitting in a gaggle of buckeye fans as their team pissed away another lead and cursed their coach for not having Malaki in the game! What kind of coach doesn’t keep his best players on the floor?Coming up big late again
This, and last year's 1st round NCAA exit as a 2-seed. Pretty unceremonious. I'd be a little restless if I were them, too.It was a joy sitting in a gaggle of buckeye fans as their team pissed away another lead and cursed their coach for not having Malaki in the game!

For at least a generation OSU has underperformed in post season based on seed and/or talent. Thad Matta had a lot of good teams that always seemed to lose a game earlier than they should have, including the year they went to national championship game. They could have won that one but it was a pretty even match up with Florida I think.This, and last year's 1st round NCAA exit as a 2-seed. Pretty unceremonious.

Indiana up 1 on Illinois with 6 to go. This one might decide their NCAA fate one way or the other
Very shaky with the ball down the stretch. Had a chance to make a layup and did not.Illinois lost this one
Played to lose,and did !!
Big Ten wanted to be sure Indiana gets in Tournament
Did it in football too ...SEC DOING THE SAME THING TO GET ADDITIONAL Team in!!
FWIW -
I was riding my exercise bike listening to a radio station from Iowa. Normally a classic-rock format. at Noon, they switched over to the Iowa Men's Basketball pre-game show.
Among other things, I learned that Iowa is the best-conditioned team in the B1G and has the best trainers, which is why they are ready to play 4 games in 4 days.
In their third OT against Middle TN, looks like they'll win to make it to their championshipUAB, if they make it, could be a dangerous mid-major in the tournament.
He's enough to make a guy cheer for the Badgers.3 minutes into the game, and already Izzo is whining.
All good info thanks. Maybe I'm just scratching my head as to what others like the MWC tier schools were NOT seeing at the time. You had guys like Tim Miles who was at NDSU from 01-07 and moved up. Bottom line is he is back in the NCAA tournament again (he did it also in 2018 w/ Wright State I think).Salary was definitely a part of it. And there wasn't anything bad behind the scenes, but after 21 years there, plus hiring a new AD in '09, the two sides drifted apart.
Their choice was give Nagy a significant bump, or go with the younger up and coming Otzelberger, and they chose the latter.
You, my friend are an idiot.No flagrant on Murray he's a no touch guy, BS , Big Ten sure can find a way to protect its guys.
Pure BS !!!
No announcers, they did not get it right,
Those dipshit announcers have no balls,they always agree with the call.
Without their starting PG. Providence overrated compared to their net and kenpomCreighton up 30 on #11 Providence. 4 mins left. I love this time of year.
