CJ Walker listed off just about everybody.
He thanked his Ohio State coaches, his teammates, his teammates’ parents, his family, his daughter. The fifth-year senior point guard from Indianapolis, having taken the microphone for his Senior Day speech after the Buckeyes lost to Illinois in the regular season finale, tried to leave nobody unmentioned.
In the midst of those thank-yous, the team’s vocal leader directed a message to his fellow players.
“Let’s try to figure this out, try to get better as a team going into March,” Walker said to those in the Schottenstein Center on Saturday.
