I still can't believe they're going to play this in 50-degree weather.

I'm ready for OSU hoops!!

I've been slacking in regards to reading up on this years team.

Any word on the starting 5?

Craft
Thomas
Williams

Other than that, I have no clue. I'm interested to see how Ross pans out this season.

Craft, Thomas, and Smith are the three locks. For the scrimmage, those three and Williams/Ross started the first half, and then Ravenel/Thompson were switched in to start the second half. I've heard potential line-ups with both sets of players.

This team could be nasty defensively to close out games. Craft, Smith, and Thompson are all very good perimeter guys, then you can have Williams as the shot blocker in the middle.

What the hell did they expect? This is going to end up being very dangerous.

They are saying basically that they are going to stop the game anytime the players and/or officials feel there is too much condensation. Wiping the floor AGAIN, with the coaches and managers out there wiping it down

If I was a player I honestly don't think I would have been willing to suit up for this. Such a stupid, stupid idea.

It really doesn't sound like they'll be playing this game based on these coach interviews. Neither coach wanted to come out and say it, but they're both clearly uncomfortable.

I think it's safe to say this might be the last year of the Carrier game.
