After missing the first 10 games, Mickey Mitchell is finding his legs with Ohio State

In early December Mickey Mitchell had to be wondering if he was even going to see the floor for Ohio State, as he was ineligible for the first 10 games of the year while waiting for the NCAA Eligibility Center to clear him to play. Just a couple months later, Mitchell has made the most of his season after he was finally cleared. The freshman from Texas is usually the third player of the bench for Ohio State, eating up minutes for Thad Matta's team as the starters get some rest. Even though his numbers might not show it, Mitchell gives the Buckeyes a tremendous boost of the bench with his energy on the court.
