If Dee and Deron come back (which is what all the experts are advising them to do, we should be fine next year as well). We'll need to fill in PF spot somehow, but hopefully the new recruiting class should be pretty good - do you know anything about that ?
Not a thing. Been so excited about this team that I haven't paid any attention beyond it.

hey hoodie, you think the Buckeyes have a chance this postseason ? ;)

6th, i much prefer this defeat right now than at any point during the postseason. it took a crazy comeback on an off night of Illinois. I'm really not worried ... that run was amazing!!!
The Buckeyes are not eligible for post season play this year; the Illinois game was their NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
I'm cheering for the Illini.......being 50 miles from Columbus, I'm a BIG 10 kinda guy !!!

Why do you think I asked you that question ? :D
I like your sense of humor. Because the sanctions were self imposed, a lot of people, even this close to Columbus, are unaware of them.

P.S. I think they'll be undefeated in the postseason.

Sad news for Illini fans.......

Yesterday, during the quarter-final win over Northwestern, Coach Weber's mother experience chest pains. They took her into heart surgery last evening where she did not survive the operation.

Although his mom died last night, Coach will be on the sidelines today coaching his kids to (hopefully) another victory. His family will be there in support. It is where she would want them all to be.

My condolences to Coach Weber and the entire Weber family.
