F Marc Loving (Agua Caliente Clippers of Ontario - NBA G-League)

I would just make him a six man and bring him off the bench. At this point who cares if his feelings are hurt and he pouts. What would the difference be in how he already acts.....
The problem is that we do not have any depth to make him a sixth man.. Maybe Potter but I do not think that he can handle the ball on the perimeter.. Not saying that Loving can. There is also Wesson but I do not want to ruin his confidence ffor the next three years but it might be worth a shot.

I don't think that snide comment was really necessary. I thought bashing Buckeyes was a violation.

@Systems_id says you have to have a degree to be anything other than a fry cook at McDonald's. Hopefully he got a degree in table wiping, running hot fries out to cars in the drive-thru or possibly working the McCafe machine. If he got a degree in finance, he could maybe land a cashier sales job. He could maybe even start off unloading the truck that brings the shortening but Assistant Night Manager is where the college education really starts to pay off.

You see, the NBA takes players "regardless of skill" but McDonald's doesn't hire just anybody.

I know that there are 5 guys on the court at once but this is just atrocious for one player
I have a stat from this season. I call it the Loving. It's how many times Marc Loving had a game with a personal turnover total equal to or greater than his number of made field goals.

That happened 16 times, and Loving averaged 33 minutes on the floor in those games. Ohio State went 8-8 in those 16 games, including one-point losses to Purdue and Nebraska, and two-points losses to Virginia and Northwestern.

Marc did nothing to embarrass Ohio State on or off the court. He was a fairly productive, though inconsistent, performer. And he stuck around for four years.

Disappointing given the hype as a freshman? Sure. And I have no basis for judging the level of effort he put into improving. Nonetheless, I won't be among those dumping on Marc Loving. I've seen a lot worse in Buckeye hoop uniforms.
