SKULL SESSION: URBAN MEYER'S NEW SECURITY BLANKET, JARED SULLINGER'S NBA DREAMS AND JAMARCO JONES WAS A STEAL FOR THE SEAHAWKS

SECOND-CHANCE SULLY.
If you've watched The Scarlet & Gray play in this year's TBT, you've probably noticed Jared Sullinger putting the team on his back and dominating the post.

Sully finished the most recent game in the tournament with an absurd 28 points and 20 rebounds. Winning the tournament would earn him a share of the $2 million winner-take-all prize, and he looks like a man on a mission to bring it home.

But while he'd gladly take the check, that's not his main goal as he competes in this tournament.

From Bob Baptist of The Athletic ($):

More than the money, Sullinger would like a second chance.

After 4 1/2 seasons in the NBA in which he had back surgery once, surgery to repair stress fractures in his left foot twice and ultimately found himself unemployed because of his inability to control his weight, he said he is healthy and just happy to be back playing basketball again. Whether next season sees him back in the NBA, back in China, where he played last season, or in Europe, is immaterial.

“Of course, everybody’s dream is to play in the NBA. Don’t get me wrong,” he said. “But I just want to play basketball somewhere. I’m at that point in my dream. I just want to play basketball and get paid somewhere to be able to play basketball. That’s my main goal. Whether it’s here, there or on the moon, I’m there.”

Sullinger blames only himself for falling out of the NBA years ago, citing his own immaturity which led to unhealthy weight gains.

But now it's only himself who can get him back in. He's still battling, and has a lot of work to do, but a dominating performance in this tournament can't hurt.

JARED SULLINGER, 2012
Coming off a freshman season that saw Ohio State go 32-2 entering the NCAA tournament, Jared Sullinger and the Buckeyes took a step back in the 2012 regular season. Ohio State was still a contender, but it missed the senior leadership of players like David Lighty and Jon Diebler.

The Buckeyes found a solid groove in the postseason, and a lot of that was due to Sullinger's stellar play. In the conference opener against Purdue, he piled up 30 points and 12 rebounds. He followed that up with 24-point, six-rebound performance in a 77-55 win over No. 10 Michigan.

The Buckeyes fell short in the Big Ten title game against Michigan State, but Sullinger was solid, scoring 18 points while grabbing nine rebounds against the tough Spartans defense.
