The refs are so fucking stupid not to overturn that lose ball. If the black hand (Iowa) touches the ball and ends up a foot past the white hand (Purdue), the ball OBVIOUSLY went off the black hand last. And that is assuming you couldn't tell which hand it went off of which I think any reasonable person could.

That was an awful call.

But Purdue blows and had their chance

Also, they seem to have this problem in the NBA, so I am not blaming these officials but just basketball officials in general.

1. Nothing
2. See 1

That's it

The only thing I think I know for certain is that Wisconsin is going to beat Rutgers on January 28th.

What's the deal with Jok not making the Wooden list? I just assumed he'd be a lock so didn't even pay attention when it came out. Shocked me

I'll be honest, I haven't even seen the list yet. My guess is that Iowa's early struggles probably hampered him from making it. But you're right he should at least be on the list. He's had a pretty incredible year thus far. 7th in the nation in PPG.

Yeah that's probably it. Dude leads all major conference players in PPG and is grabbing 7 boards a game too. Just surprised me to not see him on it

I just googled the list and Nigel Hayes made it? That's pretty awful to be honest. Jok averages more ppg, rpg, and has a better PER. Hayes is shooting 47% from the field as a PF? Honestly looking at the list, alot of the players are on there probably because of NBA potential bull shit. Jok's having a top 10 season for sure.

This is legit the worst Ohio State I can remember, Jim O'Brien won like 8 games in his first season and that was 1997, that's pretty much the level these guys have sunk to though.

Thad Matta needs to go, this is a ship that's already sunk and there is no reviving it with him.

Not just Thad, the whole staff needs to be overhauled.

At this point if they somehow won 5 conference games I would consider it a MAJOR success, but that seems like quite a reach at this point.

They may turn it around a little bit. 3 of the first 4 on the road in conference play is tough, and the home game was against a top 3 conference team more than likely. If they don't win one of the next two, then I would be very concerned.
