Mullens needs to realize that he doesn't have to start to shoot the second he gets the ball. He needs to take his time and pass the ball back out if necessary.

He's done that a few times so far this game.

[buckeyemania11]

9 offensive boards and 11 second chance points by Iona so far........

Ohio State ice cold from 3 (1-10)

Wow, extremely sloppy and uninspired play right now. Diebs needs to look for his shot. Simmons needs to drive and dish more instead of lurking at the 3 line. Turner needs to start playing tougher defense and getting to the basket on the other end. I though Crater played well when he got in there. Buford needs to work a little more for his shot and take the open one when its there. He seems to still be forcing at times.

Someone has to step up and take charge.

Just noticed these guys took Wiscy to OT before losing by 2, and yet lost their last game to Western Michigan by 14 points. Looks like the good Gaels showed up today.

Come on, Bucks.

Diebs has yet to hit a FG. We're going to need him to step up. I'd like to see Buford get some more time, too.
