It’s not that Ohio State has been playing bad basketball recently.
Far from it. The Buckeyes are winners of four of their past six games, even if they’ve lost two of their past three contests. Those were road defeats to Illinois and Nebraska, two teams with a combined 20-5 record at home this year.
Still, there’s another level Jake Diebler and his team want to get to as they return home for a trio of games after playing three of their last four contests in hostile environments. While there’s always improvements to be made across the board, there’s one position Ohio State could use more production from – center.
