This Week in Twitter is a look at some of the week’s best and most entertaining tweets from Buckeyeland and beyond.
The Ohio State men's basketball team is officially on the NCAA Tournament bubble, according to Mark Titus. Is that fair? It will likely depend on how they play in the final two regular season games (vs. Michigan and at Rutgers) and the Big Ten Tournament, but the fact that it's even a valid question at this point shows you the type of job Jake Diebler has done already.
No. That was a different team. These Buckeyes are 3-1 with wins over Purdue, Michigan State, and Nebraska. And no bad losses. That's a bubble team at the very least.

And before the haters say I'm biased, I actually have as us as FIRST FOUR OUT right now. Lot of ball left though. https://t.co/LxuUN7MnvS
Two former Ohio State greats met up in Indianapolis during the NFL Scouting Combine, as Marvin Harrison Jr. and Cris Carter talked ball after Harrison talked to at least nine NFL teams in Indy.

Furthermore, Carter enjoys being a mentor for Harrison as he prepares for the NFL.
NFL Legends serve as mentors for each position group at the #NFLCombine. For Marvin Harrison Jr., @criscarter80 is just a quick call away. pic.twitter.com/9kFAOHkoqs

Fran Fraschilla has a very valid point. Unfortunately, it won't happen.
This will never happen, but in talking to some of my @OhioStAthletics friends, I told them I would modernize St. John Arena the way @KUHoops did with Allen Fieldhouse. It would be one of the grade home courts in college basketball. pic.twitter.com/fLypGZGb4D

LaQuinton Ross agrees with Johnny Manziel: Some college players got paid way before the NIL era began.
Johnny Manziel interview with Shannon was dope. NIL was not the beginning of players getting paid lol trust me lol

We agree, JJ Sullinger. Worry about this season, especially how the Buckeyes have been playing lately.
Why are we talking about next season?? This season is still happening!! We got Nebraska at the crib on the 29th!! All I am really concerned with right now!! https://t.co/bVVvcwmH93

So, Nebraska's football team recently had a dunk contest at halftime of a Cornerhuskers' basketball game. With that in mind, which Ohio State football players would you want to see compete in a dunk contest and who would win it?

Joshua Perry has some questions about the new 12-team CFP format.
How do you feel about the new 12-team playoff model?
