Three games into the season, where does Ohio State stand heading into its matchup with UConn? Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch joins us to break down the Buckeyes' early-season performance, including a challenging loss to BYU, a convincing win over Youngstown State, and a closer-than-expected victory against Marshall.
We discuss what Ohio State was doing well during its strong stretches against BYU, some of the struggles that have shown up through the first three games, and the impressive start from John Mobley Jr., who has emerged as a key offensive piece. We also dive into the early contributions of Amare Bynum, head coach Jake Diebler's style of play, and what UConn can expect from the Buckeyes.
Plus, are Ohio State basketball fans getting excited about this team, or is the attention in Columbus still firmly on football?
