[OSU BBall Burner @osubasketball25]

@ThunderHusky17 They both made contact on this action all game, this is Caruso trying to bait an offensive foul, like smart defenders try to do all the time, nothing more. Getting so emotional about ball when you don’t know it

[OSU BBall Burner @osubasketball25]

@taylorboyz243 @TheHoopHerald Probably does enough of that, nothing wrong with taking 45 minutes out of the gym
