Would have liked them to go big without hardaway. I like Levert dont get me wrong, but the size of Burke, Stauskas, GR3, McGary, and Morgan is an all around tough matchup. That is NBA size or close to it.

Man, I'm happy Trey decided to stick around for one more year, but with the skills he's exhibiting tonight I don't think he has much to gain with another year in college. Apart from maybe some height concerns, he looks like an NBA pg right now. I thought he might have been a bit overrated early in the year along with the rest of the team, but he's probably the best pg in college basketball at this point.

Two major gripes:

1)Defense. Started off very poorly but been much better second part of this half.

2)3 point shooting. Not a great percentage, and if you're going to shoot 14 in a half, Stauskas has to have a couple

Practice makes perfect. Unless you're the Buckeyes. Then you have to cheat.
