He may very well be a homer, but clueless? Kellog is one of the most if not the most knowledgable commentator in Basketball. That's not just my opinion, I think it was SN a year or so ago that said the same thing. And no, I don't have a link. :biggrin:
he is very knowledgable. but ive heard him call buckeye games were he was not anywhere near biased. when a guys is going "yes" "no" "oh man" "come one" i think he still has a special place in his heart for the buckeye. especially in game when he does color. in studio hes pretty good is not nearly as biased.

Tucker was 4-13 from the field, scoring 10 points. Just another example of this year's Big Ten POY stepping up in a big game.

Everyone has a bad game every so often; you can't take anything away from him. For that matter Oden didn't even have an attempted free throw in the 1st half. Our defense today was STELLAR. That kid is still the best player in the conference in my book. Congrats on setting the school record for points as well.

A bad game every so often? You're being too generous. Tucker hasn't played well down the stretch (over 50% field goal percentage only 2 of his last 12 games), and he's been even worse in Wisky's three late-season losses (6-15, 5-15, 4-13 field goals). Great players step up down the stretch and when their teams need them. Tucker's had a nice career, but I believe he gets too much credit in light of these numbers.

Tucker disappeared in the 2nd half of all three losses.

2nd half MSU loss - 6 misses, 1 dunk
2nd half OSU loss - 7 misses, 1 dunk, 1 layup
2nd half BTT loss - 3 misses, 1 layup, 1-2 FT

Again I say Tucker has a bad game every so often. These stats just go to show the team doesn't have much of a prayer if Tucker doesn't have a good game.
