@Rhymetime05 Bruce Thornton plays today too! No love??

[John Fanta @John_Fanta]

Bruce Thornton deserves a ton of credit. Four-year players at the same school are in the rarest column in today’s CBB. He was a four-year CAPTAIN! Ohio State’s all time leading scorer and a special leader. And now the first pick of the second round by Houston. He earned it.

@SWeir1023 I think they heard ya, Coach

[Gary Petit @GPetitOSU]

Come on Prime. Critical play in the game was the out of bounds call with 11 seconds left in a tie game. No replay? What are we doing?

[Gary Petit @GPetitOSU]

@SWeir1023 I completely agree! That’s a complete effort thing. Doesn’t that fall on the players? Kenny can yell/scream all he wants. He can draw up whatever he wants. Wade and Harden and Mitchell ain’t playing any harder because of it. It’s all on the player’s effort. TOR way more effort.

[Gary Petit @GPetitOSU]

@SWeir1023 If I’ve learned anything, it’s that players execute. Doesn’t matter what the coaches draw up. Did you watch the last couple timeouts? Coaches weren’t even in there. Players make all the money. It’s their game. Same in college. Haha

[Gary Petit @GPetitOSU]

@SWeir1023 Come on! The 4th quarter was the best quarter they’ve played ALL series. Down 11 to start the quarter. I’d say that’s showing up when it counted.

[Gary Petit @GPetitOSU]

@SteveHelwagen Did they get the guy they wanted anyway??

[Seth Davis @SethDavisHoops]

For the first time in a while @OhioStateHoops has lots of optimism heading into next season. @JakeDiebler spoke to me and @TheAndyKatz for Hoops HQ on the state of the program heading into 26-27 @hhqsports

"We wanted to come to a team that is ready to compete for a national championship... the comfort of being around Diebler"

Scottie Pippen loved the atmosphere at the Shoe. He said he's looking forward to his son being a part of the Buckeye family, and what Diebler is building.

[Connor Lemons @lemons_connor]

Ohio State updated Bruce Thornton's bio on the team website after the season.

After all of the stats and accolades, they added "An all-time great dude" at the very end.

[College Sports Communicators @CollSportsComm]

Jerry Emig (@BuckeyeNotes), Ohio State University (@OhioState / @OhioStAthletics) Associate Athletics Director of Communications, will be inducted into the CSC Hall of Fame AND receive his Lifetime Achievement Award this June at the #CSCUnite26 convention in Las Vegas!

"I am thrilled, appreciative and humbled to be recognized as a CSC Hall of Fame member. The feeling of pride I have to be included among this distinguished and distinctive group of communicators is real and will be everlasting. I want to thank the CSC Special Awards Committee and current Hall of Fame members for this honor. I also want to thank the communications staff at Ohio State University for its spirit, work ethic and leadership that makes every day in this profession a pleasure. Working alongside colleagues, coaches, student-athletes and members of the media has been wonderful, and I will forever be grateful that it has positioned me to receive this honor."
