Yeah. It's one of those things where you get the idea both of them generally enjoy college and want to be at Ohio State...but when it comes to this time of the year where people are talking about big money, that doesn't really matter all that often. So, it's a big crapshoot where it gets tough to tell if they'll really stay...or if the thought of them staying is just us fans being wishful because they come off as good kids who want to stay and win a title.Big Gain;1135746 wrote:I would think that Thomas and Sullinger know if they both come back Ohio State has a better shot at winning it all next year as opposed to what their chances were this year. If that has a bearing on their decisions I do not know.
As could any number of teams in the B1G...they could also finish in 1stBig Gain;1135730 wrote:Ohio State could easily finish 5th in the Big Ten next year
Read today that Thomas just had a kid recently. That would play a big part in his decision to leave.Laley23;1135624 wrote:As crazy as it is for me to say, because Ive been adamant that Sully will leave and Thomas as 50-50. But I think there is a chance both come back. Im like 80% Thomas will be back, and I was 95% Sully would go...but now Im about 50-50 on him. Dont know what it is, but Id still say he bolts if a gun was to my head.
cbf, where'd you read that at? I just tried to look it up, but can't find a link-do you have one?centralbucksfan;1135872 wrote:Read today that Thomas just had a kid recently. That would play a big part in his decision to leave.
I think you are over reacting to losing players. Like Ewok with Cuse. They are still loaded in college basketball terms and have a lot coming in.wildcats20;1136271 wrote:I still don't see Carolina as a top 15 team.
Even IF James Michael stays for next year. They won't be good.

Move OSU up about 7 spots, and this is basically what I agree with.
Jon Rothstein is releasing his tomorrow (per Twitter). Also CBSsportsnet guy.
(Its Jeff Goodman. I know that because I listen to their podcast a lot. These guys are ALOT better than the ESPN guys. Goodman said on the SVP show that while on the way to Columbus for the 2nd/3rd round games he went to the Schott instead of Nationwide, so he had to hurry over to NA and ended up getting a speeding ticket out of it!)
GFY. Yes she did. IU #1, UCONN #312sportswizuhrd;1136568 wrote:Roseanne give her opinion too?
I do like this one because they list who they think will go and stay.
Behannan? I assume so yes, and their run to the Final Four. Dieng is a player though, so if they come back I agree.wildcats20;1136554 wrote:Are these assuming Siva and the other guy stay?
Louisville won't sniff the top 5 without them.

Read over why he had UNC at 8 and its due to the possibility that McAdoo could go there and the possibility that Alex Oriakhi could go there. Dumb.Laley23;1136659 wrote:Sports Illustrated: I read they knocked MSU down because of Nix, but it isnt stated for sure in the article.
