Give me 3 Leron Blacks, 1 Tracy, 1 Hill. The rest can come off the bench.

Let's not forget that OSU lost to a terrible team at home tonight in a very similar game. Yes, this was very stressful. But we did not lose at the end like Winthrop. Just. Keep. Winning.

Well people wanted to see how we'd handle another close game. Obviously not the team you want to have to do it against, but the boys pulled away when it mattered. Also, man am I gonna miss watching Malcolm play for the orange and blue after this season.

I really think Leron will be in the NBA someday. Has a great all around game and if he so happens to start hitting his threes watch out. Dude is a ball of energy.

This game doesn't bother me. IUPUI is a decent team and they played well tonight. We showed we were the superior team.

Not sure where people get off calling this TEAM soft. There are a handful of soft players, sure. Finke maybe. Mav for sure.

But Leron Black, Malcolm Hill, and Tracy Abrams give all they got. No reasonable person would call them soft.

Ugly ugly ugly. Obviously a letdown after the last 2 games.

Positives are obviously Hill and the continued great play from Black. It is looking like this is the Black we can count on this season. Of course the biggest positive is they won. They also have some experience now of winning a close game. That could come in handy later in the season.

1. We having massive, gaping holes (like "defense").

2. Tonight was a game this team has lost more often than not. Uninspired play - check. Career night guy - check. 28-foot bank-in-3 in the last minutes - check. But tonight, our defense actually sacked up and preserved a win against the closing punches of the opponent. A sweet sight to end an ugly contest.

3. Leron Black is our best player.
