Time Warner’s feed of the BTN
Ohio State announced yesterday the starting times for the home OOC games, all starting at noon and two of them on the BTN. Youngstown St. and Troy have been picked up by the Network, while the Ohio U. game will be on ESPN or ESPN2.
This could be one of [...]
With no real Juco’s left worthy of a scholarship, Thad Matta has reportedly added a walk-on formerly of Cincinnati Moeller in the form of 6′9″ J.J. Grycko.
Grycko played on Moeller’s 06′-’07 state title team averaging a paltry 4.1 points, according to Bob Baptist’s blog.
I’m glad it appears Matta is content to not waste a scholarship [...]
I think it’s safe to say Jack Greynolds Jr, Kosta Koufos’ head coach at Canton GlenOak High School, is not a huge fan of Thad Matta.
In today’s Canton Repository, Greynolds called Matta “clueless” based on his thoughts that Matta was to blame for the rumored poor relationship between the slow to develop big man and [...]
After mock drafts had him going as high as 11th, Kosta Koufos fell to the 23rd pick in tonight’s draft.
My first thought, which an ESPN talking head sort of alluded to, is that Jerry Sloan might eat Kosta for lunch if the big Greek doesn’t step up the toughness in a hurry.

With Kosta Koufos guaranteed to be a first round selection and Othello Hunter hoping for a late second round miracle, Ohio State is looking at back to back years with at least one player being drafted for the first time since 2000 and 2001.

Published reports say Iowa State transfer Wesley Johnson has committed to Syracuse.
Bob Baptist spoke with Johnson last week and the indication was he would visit OSU before July 6th but that’s out the window as Johnson settled on ‘Cuse without visiting any of the other schools on his list.
In other Buckeye Basketball news, 1460 just [...]
The outside threat Team USA was missing?
Michael Redd will be a member of Team America. Although it won’t be official until later Monday, most of the team was known over the weekend as the NBA cemented its hold on the league that keeps secrets the worst. If you doubt that for one second, [...]
OG: Over Gold
Lock up the liquor as it was announced yesterday that Bob Huggins and his WVU Mountaineers will visit Value City Arena next year with a return trip to Morgantown the following season.
I know many in Buckeye country are fond of the old slickster from his days as Eldon’s assistant but I’ve always found [...]
According to Scout, former Buckeye Eric Wallace is about to become a Blue Demon.
The 6′5″ swingman from North Carolina will be eligible for the ‘09-10 season and will have three years of eligibility left.
The well documented log jam on the Buckeye wings made this move inevitable and I wish Wallace the best. I know some [...]
Buckeyes Dominate Pre-Season teams
The great Phil Steele releases his All American team today and five Buckeyes should be on his first team. It should come as no surprise that Beanie Wells, Malcolm Jenkins and Lil’ Animal are on the team, but Alex Boone and Marcus Freeman also made the cut.
In his All-Big Ten teams, [...]
