Yeah they aren’t winning another game. That prediction didn't go very far. Glad it didn't. Glad it didn’t either.

We will see if they can put back to back good performances together. I think they will win their first big ten tournament game against most likely Nebraska.

This is the first time I've looked at the Big Ten Standings in a couple of weeks. Amazing, that every team in 2nd thought 8th place all have 7 or 8 losses and only two have 7.

Happy for these guys as they had played without much energy, but these last 2 game it seemingly returned . 1 —Defensive effort much better 2—20:20 in FT’s showed they were locked in. 3—6 guys in double digits showed they played together.

I think there's been some TEAM issues, most involving Key and Sensibaugh. The better play has occurred after Key is out for the season and Sensibaugh is getting fewer minutes.

Looks to be better play with out Key. I can be hard to move forward while WANTING someone to play well. IT may be now they have accepted what they have and are dealing with what they have instead of hopes that Key will get it done. Freshman minutes have gone up.

These gals play with determination and enthusiasm, to match their great athletic skills. Wish I could say the same for the men. Men have been a huge disappointment from day one. Poorly played and executed basketball, won't warrant my time, no matter what uniform they're wearing.

Poorly played and executed basketball, won't warrant my time, no matter what uniform they're wearing. They were 10-3 at one point and seconds away from beating #1 Purdue which is when the free fall occurred. To say they’ve been a disappointment from day 1 is a stretch.

The women had to come back from 24 down yesterday and now are getting thrashed once again, this time by 28 and it’s only the 2nd quarter.

This team is good but let’s stop acting like they’re one of the best ever. How many times have they been blown out this year or had to come back from way down just to win? The team with Kelsey Mitchell several years back would probably beat them.

Only one post player and she prefers to shoot from the outside and opponents have figured out how to beat their press and score off it.

Buckeyes will play Wisconsin in the first round on Wednesday. I can see them beating the Badgers.

I don't disagree with that assessment, but early lightweights on their schedule, padded their record, till the Big Ten brought our failings to light. I was feeling pretty good, early on as well. Here's hoping the NIT can be a positive building block for assembling next years team.

The team with Kelsey Mitchell several years back would probably beat them. Let's not ignore the spate of injuries this team has had to endure. As I stated before, when they aren't shooting well, their vaunted press becomes rather non-existant. Looking forward to the NCAA and hope they have some size to bolster the front line next year.

They virtually, had nothing left in the tank after being mentally and emotionally drained the night before, with the dramatic, come from behind victory.

Almost blew a 27 point lead, but a win is a win. They went like 6 minutes without scoring in the second half at one point, can’t do that against Iowa they’ll definitely lose. Thornton had a nice game though. He’s really been playing well the last several weeks.

I think Wisconsin went like 11 minutes in the first half without a basket. Often streaks like that even out in a game
Thornton says he knows he hit the "freshman wall" a few weeks ago and battled through it.
