Maybe turnovers also

Tied with JuJuan with 2.  So he has a A/T ratio of 2.0.  Not bad.

[MarquetteDano]

I like Carlino.  Sure with the ball.  Decent shooter.  Not a bad defender.  By the end of the year I might like him more than I did Junior.

Yeah.  We have our point guard.  I am sure some of his shooting decisions are going to annoy us all but he is our best option at this point.

Loved his opinion of the McDonalds All American teams

I liked when he said, "Why wouldn't you redshirt? What're you gonna do? Work?"

[Dr. Blackheart]

Two free throws total in the half.  None by the Bucks.

[We R Final Four]

Maybe SOTG?

[chapman]

Damn...OSU's student section makes ours look like models.  JC Penney catalog models, but still.

[Shark]

Carlino looks better than advertised

[AirPunches]

Team playing hard. JJJ needs to get stronger with the ball.

Sandy's defense needs some work, but I really like what he brings.  He has been a real pleasant surprise.

[martyconlonontherun]

Carlino convinced me he's a point guard. Still needs to hold off some of those long 3s

[Mu2323]

Taylor jr looking sad out there

[patso]

about time DB

[JoeSmith1721]

Burton could be really special if he wasn't such a horrid defender.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Taylor has really struggled tonight.  He's missed a few chippies and dribbled the ball of his foot.  He's also really slow on helping out on defense.

Hope he can turn it around to finish the game.  We'll need him.

Did Carlino play European soccer at BYU?

[denverMU]

I love Deonte but he's got to get in the game.  He makes a bad turnover and then walks down the court so OSU gets a layup

[Fred Garvin]

Jjj and Burton not looking real good tonight.Still this team is kind of fun to watch.

[Shark]

Hoping the team learns a lot from this. Mainly how to execute fast breaks. We've screwed ourselves out of 6 easy points.

Was going to ask if someone's been a quick learner of the Duke flop.

[GoldenWarrior11]

I feel like it'll be a running theme all year (even when Fischer returns), but it's frustrating when you see the group struggling on the floor - and that there aren't a whole lot of options to go from the bench.

We can't have the "next man up" mentality because, frankly, we don't have anyone else to bring in.

[Dr. Blackheart]

OSU racking up the fouls...MU almost in bonus.  Free throws will slow game and get MU back in it.

[nyg]

Downhill after the breakaway off Taylor's knee, brutal.......second breakaway for nothing

DWil in for Juan and OSU lead doubles.  

I think the Burton to NBA talk should subside for awhile.  He may soon be with Dawson in doghouse, no matter what potential he has.

Fighting hard, but this is great experience for the youngsters..

Agree. And those points sure would look nice on the board.  Some of this is the result of this being many of the guys first big game action..and being eager to produce.  JJJ got steal, then gave it right back away.  JJJ missed dunk from a tough take off point/though wide open.  Steve dribbling off his foot when he could have given it to JJJ for easy dunk.

[Texas Western]

Our kids are very nervous and understandably so. On the road versus a tough big ten opponent. When they learn to relax they will be ok.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Greg Oden looks like he is 40.
