<<< Ohio State vs Illinois IN GAME >>>

Not sure about anyone else but I have a few observations about this game....

--Tisdale has a great outside shot, better than what I've seen all year. As an inside/outside player he is going to be a tough matchup for most big guys.

--When Purdue fans were chanting "subway diet" as Sullinger was shooting FTs, they weren't kidding. He has struggled getting up and down the court all night. Conditioning wise I don't think he is 50% where he needs to be. What sucks for the Big Ten is that he is NOT good enough to go pro NOR should he be even in the consideration for POY in the NCAA. His FT line and in jump shooting has not impressed me at all this year. Sure he can dunk, but where is the FT line jumper?

--Last but not least....where did ILL learn to shoot lights out from the perimeter?

--Craft for OSU is a very undervalued PG...kid is great on D and excellent vision on O.

comments?....

I guess Purdue fans forgot the fact that the Buckeyes only rotate 7 guys, you put any other big man into that workload over the long haul of the season you are going to see a TRUE freshmen look a little wore out at times, if Thad is smart he will rest him a little more down the stretch and get him ready for Tourney time...

nope, didn't forget at all.....that falls on coaching and conditioning.
