wtf is Shedric doing. Protect the rim dawg. 
Bradshaw ain’t gone shoot shit 

lol Johnson runs like he’s never played basketball a day in his life 

Yea, Shedrick for 3 probably wasn't the best option

ohio state guards look like the guards baylor always has  thick, can bang in the lane and can shoot.  we always have weak shit that can't get into the lane at all.

Sad, but with one exception they have better players across the board.   Play them 10 times we lose 8.

So I guess if Johnson doesn’t shoot we have no one on offense . Smh 

Why were we ranked to begin with sheesh smh 

BS. same thing happened early on the other end with no call.

The decision to roll into the season with Shedrick and Onyema as our big men was a choice

It is impressive that we somehow managed to be down by 10 the entire game.

Edited by Valmy77

Never had the lead, and really never close.  Pretty much an ass kicking.

Ohio State won't always shoot like that

And neither will we

 

And holy cow Tre... someone to be excited about for this season!

 

We just had to hire Rodney Terry...I hope it was worth it to get Tre Johnson.

Terry better get it turned around 

Rodney Terry I want my money back

If we get a little better, we could make a run at the NIT

7-28 from three but somehow felt worse.

Cuz it was 2-18 without Tres

29 pts, 5 rebounds, 4 assists. 50% shooting. Not bad for an 18 yo in his first college BB game against a good opponent.

Tre Johnson FG 9/19 (47%), 3Pt 5/10 (50%)

Rest of team FG 13/45 (28%), 3Pt 2/17 (11%)

I would have felt better if it were a back and forth contest that we just fell short in, but we were dominated for 40 minutes in a game we never led or even tied up after 0-0. Ohio State is just as young and transfer heavy as we are, and they outplayed and outcoached Texas. Our bigs won't be able to contribute much on offense so we'll lean on Tre most games until teams start doubling him and then we're super fucked.

How did you guys feel about Tre's defense?

For a guy who is obviously offense first and a true freshman, he actually tries pretty hard on the defensive end.

Onyema shouldn't have even been on a D1 roster last year. And the fact we not only brought him back but gave him minutes tonight gives me deep deep concern.

Mark can score the ball.   That will help.  

This team is definitely better 1 through 16 than last year but my fear is we collected a bunch of individual talent instead of assembling a roster. Are a bunch of 22 and 23 year olds going to defer to Tre Johnson all year or will we see too much hero ball at the worst times? 

We’ll see. 1 game sample size applies and Tramon Mark will help quite a bit.

Positionless basketball might be the future, but nostalgic me will always want an actual point guard. Without one...well, you see the result. Johnson is absolutely the truth, but we have to take the pressure off him to do everything. That task falls on multiple guys, starting with the HC.

Our bigs did a little banging, but they're so deficient in actual skills that it didn't matter. Sure looks like a roster of JAGs and one monster talent. Hopefully Mark makes a positive difference...but if tonight is who we really are, we'll overachieve to win 18 games and get a 9 seed.

So far,  I see a mediocre team.  

Close your eyes.

How long does Terry have left on his contract?

yeah, again no shooters except for our 1 and done NBA sure thing.  ugh. better teams will make Johnson's life miserable. CDC better be ready.

we’ll get a 7-10 seed, get hot (led by Tre), go to the S16 or E8, and he’ll be safe for another two years.

God, I wish.  I'd take that right now.

Johnson  29/5/4  2 stl and a block.  as advertised.

I think the most disheartening part of this is realizing we just don't have the players.    And now we're all waiting on a guy who is in a walking boot to pop out of it completely healthy and be instant offense.  Oy vey

i actually think he looked better than advertised. more well rounded. i was expecting a keyonte george type scorer, and what we’ve got is a tall, long, versatile gym rat who gives great effort at both ends of the court, who showed some high IQ and some PG skills. that’s as promising a debut as he could have made imo.
