THE VIEW FROM THE HEDGES
Res ThaSequel is new to Old Columbus Town and once saw Thad Matta at a Columbus Pizza Hut enjoying the lunch buffet. Matta refused him as a walk-on despite ThaSequel’s assertion that “he was a five, but could play the two.” This clearly makes him qualified to report on Ohio [...]
Spring is the time when a young man’s thoughts turn to practice (and Henton)
OMG! We luv U Jamar!
Jamar Butler, despite voicing his frustrations earlier this season, made his final walk to the Schott’s locker room with a smile on his face.
Ok, more like a smirk.
Butler and the Bucks beat Dayton last night, advancing to the NIT semi-finals in NYC. Below is the post-game interview. After he is dismissed we are treated to [...]
If spring predictions hold true, come December there’s gonna be some fussin’ and a-feudin’ in Georgia (again)
College Football News, owned and operated by Scout.com, has long been my favorite of the myriad internet college football, uh, news websites. The staff seems genuinely passionate about the one sport that they tirelessly cover year-round while always making efforts towards non-partisanship and giving press to even the smallest D-1 programs.
Based on this flattery alone, [...]
Bucks set date with Flyers
To make up for all that missed time in the classroom over spring break, the Ohio State basketball team put on a clinic last night in St. John Arena, beating Cal 73-56.
The old field house was shaking on full tilt during the first half when Jamar Butler (right, v. UNC Ash.) hit 3 treys and [...]
Basketball 2007-08: Chernobyl or Mere Three Mile Island?
THE VIEW FROM THE HEDGES
(NEW FEATURE)Res ThaSequel is a new contributor to the Old Columbus Town. He is the author of The Dimitrious Stanley Story and still wears his 1999 Final Four gear without irony or fear of reprisals. You hear me, NCAA?
There is a simple answer to the question of if this year’s installment [...]
Belmont coach employs the sweater vest look, nearly up-ends Duke
Rick Byrd, Belmont basketball head coach, put a new face to the sweater vest “trend” this evening during his near-upset of Coach K and the hated Blue Devils (71-70). It’s uncertain as to whether the look is inspired by The Vest himself, but a quick scan of the Bruins website and the always reliable Google [...]
Can’t score, can’t win, Kent State
Taken earlier today: The Golden Flashes pose at the Delt house before departing for Omaha
Ragging on Kent St. is about as relevant as a Mad TV sketch, but today was an unpleasent reminder of why the Golden Flashes will always be that other MAC team from Ohio.
K-State was drubbed today by UNLV,71-58, in one [...]
Terrelle Pryor narrows list down to 1
Terrelle Pryor will be attending The Ohio State University and is the dual-threat icing on top of the cake that is the best recruiting class in the Jim Tressel era (with the signing of Pryor, OSU “leapfrogs” USC to claim ESPN’s 6th best class.)
His anti-climatic press conference has long past the 5- minute mark and [...]
Pryor to announce tomorrow
Projected to be bigger than the season finalies of Project Runway and Rock of Love 2 combined, Terrelle Pryor will finally end speculation and announce his decision tomorrow, high noon. As evidenced by the brevity of the Post Gazette article, this is “breaking” news and there’s no word of a televised press conference at this [...]
Finally, another way to slow workplace productivity
The fine scholars at the Syracuse basketball blog, Cuse Country, are hosting their 2nd Annual NIT Bracket Challenge.Thanks to some grade-A Microsoft Office work and a true commitment to the sport (of casual gambling and basketball), Cuse Country has given all of us Buckeye fans another reason to watch our team throw down with the [...]
