I usually like skip, he tells it how it is and how he feels. But he must have not watched OSU this season, Craft is the best on ball defender in the country, Taylor wont get anything on him. Ya it was way early in the season but OSU held them close till the end at Kansas without sully. And I think in the tourny this team has gotten a lot better. I like OSU chances with Kansas they have Robinson as the ony consistant scorere Taylor is up and down just like Buford.
In my (humble) opinion, Skip is employed to be obnoxious, loud, and idiotic on air. For whatever weird reason, it brings viewers. Other than that I agree with your post.
Spring quarter just began this Monday right? That means Aaron won't have any exams to worry about for at least another couple weeks. A whole week to watch film of Tyshaun? Remember what happened when he watched film of Trey Burke?
I won't say he'll shut him down, but to say he's in over his head is a bit ridiculous.
I hate Skip, but Tyshawn is a tough matchup, he is faster than Burke imo. But he does have a penchant for turning the ball over so Craft could take advantage of that. I am excited to watch them go at it. Oh and last time Tyshawn was playing on one leg, he had surgery right after the game to fix his meniscus.
Seriously as others have mentioned his only job is to have extreme opinions (as it seems most sports talk people are now, but he's one of the worst). Just ignore him, he knows how many fans osu has which is why he said it.
Skip Bayless is an egotistical bozo who loves Tim Tebow and not much else. He is paid to have opinions and his schtick is to be a naysayer and poo poo on whatever he can. And if the general public is naysaying and poo pooing, as many did with Tebow, he will defend them till the end. The majority of the time he is wrong, but he will never admit he is wrong nor does he care. People either love him or hate him, but many love to hate him.
Doug is the only one who makes any sense in that clip. "Kansas is on a roll" WTF They barely got by Purdue and NC State. "OMG TAYLOR'S PUTTING UP NUMBERS LIKE A.I." It was one game against a 3rd string PG. He still can't hit a 3 in domes.
Actually, almost everyone I've seen is picking Ohio State in a close game.
Hardly a mention of Thomas who is averaging close to 22 in the tournament.
Fair points on Sully...when he was closer to 280 he could catch the ball on the block or in the paint almost at will. This year he has a couple of new guards feeding the post, but I think when he's closer to 265 he can't back his way in as easily. I don't know if it's by design but he almost always catches the ball 10-14 feet out from the basket. I also don't know if the guys realize the seriousness of plantar fasciitis and it's not a 2-3 week injury period and then it's gone. It usually takes MONTHS to recover fully.
bayless is right about one thing and the thing is TEBOW lol. seriously though he def says stuff for shock value...taylor def doesnt get his avg on craft and i look for 3-5 more turnovers. Craft is never in over his head defensively... I coach bball albeit at a very low level of college.... defense never takes days off and craft def brings that.... Also taylor is extremely streaky and overrated imo
HA The Skipster. He's a must follow on Twitter for me because I just can't get enough of his nonsense. You can't take anything this guy says to heart. He and SAS are perfect for each other-A pair of loud mouth race baters who ask hard hitting questions like "What if prominent sports figure A who is of ethnicty X were actually Ethnicity Y!". Dont let his ramblings offend you, just enjoy them for their own stupidity. He's so far up Tebow's butt that when Timmy sneezes and someone says "Bless you" its actually Skip that says "Thank you!".
4-6 seconds from point A to point B and when you get to point B, be pissed off
Usually I hate Skip Bayless and everything that comes out of his mouth but IMO he really didnt say anything in that clip that was too far off. Sure I think OSU is gonna beat Kansas, but Skip had a few vaild points...
How can you say that Kansas will dominate Ohio State so many times and in so many different ways to end with "Kansas should be a 2 point favorite"? "Kansas is great, Ohio State isn't"..."Robinson is better than Sullinger"..."Craft is in over his head"..."Sullinger looks more grounded than he ever did even though he has a great skills now and can even shoot threes" (what is that supposed to mean, Skip?)..."Kansas has fought through injuries and hardships" and are "overacheiving and coming together at the right time" (isn't the exact same true of Ohio State?)... Then after all of that garbage he says that the line should be Kansas by 2. WHAT? If you are that sure of a win, you don't say that the spread should be just 2 points. If anyone thinks that a spread should be 2 points, they don't really THINK there is much of an advantage at all.
@redstorm45 I've had plantar fasciitis off and on for about 6 years and it never seems to want to go away. It MUST have some effect on Sullinger. That and he was a better post player when he had that booty. This team would be unreal if we had a real post player and could let Sullinger freelance a little more away from the basket.

I expect it, hell most people had been picking Ohio State to lose since the Gonzaga game so why should we expect anything less?

The guy claims LeBron and Aaron Rodgers arent the best players in their respective sports. He is nothing more than nESPN's number one troll.
I believe it is an old, old wooden ship
If Denard Robinson isn't careful with spooning all that food into his mouth, he's going to end up lookin' like Whoopi Goldberg
Skip Bayless=Skeletor!
