Didn't you hear? TJD has extended his range. He can now shoot a 4.5 footer. Such a valuable addition to his versatile repertoire.
Just one of those things were people give it to the projected better team.

Tbf, I don’t remember the last year fans online didn’t call it a down year.
Ohio State’s last two classes have a wide discrepancy on almost every signee between the 4 services I follow. Rivals, 247, Espn and On3.
2022
Roddy Gayle a high of 39 and a low of 117
Bruce Thornton 47-97
Felix Okpara 57-96
Brice Sensabaugh 42-67
2023
Middleton 18-94
Royal 26-78
GW3- 30-135
The only ones that matter are 247 and rivals (though these have fallen off) the rest don’t put nearly the effort into seeing the players to gauge it accurately.
I think 247 has fallen off badly in the last few years. On3 has a lot of old Rivals guys and don’t have enough of a track record. I’ve always appreciated Espn more than most, especially when Telep was running it.

Really? 247 has the most national and local scouts of any service. They pulled the top Rivals guys before On3 (who hasn’t been very good to this point, imho) was in existence. What makes you say 247 has fallen off?
That’s what 2/3 seasons with less than 20 wins and bottom half conference finished will get you if you have one E8 run apparently. How Mick Cronin can be below him despite better seasons (including beating him H2H in the E8) in that timeframe and a much more extensive résumé pretty much shows how much thought went into this list.

I stopped reading after seeing Tommy Lloyd over Painter lol. Plenty of questionable names/placement on this list lol.
It is funny when people (usually homeboarders) think the results of euro trips mean anything.
Everyone here knows who would be the first to report a MSU foreign tour loss...
I can say with complete confidence I’ve never even known when any other Big Ten teams have done a euro tour.
I have faith in you brother. You'd find a way.
They are infinitely less meaningful than even secret scrimmages.
For sure, but you have to know you're getting shit when you take an L in one.
Who cares about that? That was just relevant basketball info in a dearth of news.
Reality is that Juwan hasn’t proven top 25 worthy at this point. Media loves them some Juwan though.
Michigan Kenpom finishes in the Howard era:
16
3
27
In that span, 5 tournament wins (S16, E8).
Not putting him a current top 25 would be sour grapes.

Yeah, that’s certainly the argument to be made. 58-32 over 3 seasons amounts to a 19-11 average. Bruce Weber won some tourney games on the back of another coach’s culture too, but the body of work tells the full story. We’ll see.
Kenpom finishes of 16, 3, and 27 along with a Sweet 16 and Elite 8 in the only two tournaments played. Objectively that’s top 25.
Just curious, are those kenpom rankings pre or post-tourney?
I think Howard is probably top 25 regardless, but I know teams that go far in the tourney usually get a nice little bump in kenpom
