With an unlikely last-ditch opportunity to salvage the season awaiting in Chicago, the Buckeyes are placing 'great urgency' on their performance in the Big Ten Tournament.
“I think it was very important for the team, really mainly the young guys. The young guys need to see – sometimes it's hard for us to tell them things without them seeing,” Likekele said. “So I believe that they needed to see a couple of wins in the win column. We never felt like we couldn't win any games. A lot of the games came down to one or two possessions that we just had to do something different. So this whole time we haven't been feeling like we can't win.
“I feel as if we just kept trusting the process and listening to Coach . He kept telling us that we weren't playing the correct way and the correct manner. So he just kept drilling us and practicing us until we did,” Likekele said. “And slowly but surely, like after what we said after the Purdue game; it wasn't the outcome that we wanted, but there was little improvements that we've seen personally as a team that we've been looking for.
“I just think right now it gives us the best chance to win, is playing with a little bit more mobility and speed,” Holtmann said. “Now that'll be tested against Wisconsin because their interior guys, they play kind of two post guys, even though Wahl’s a forward that can guard really one through five, his ability to really hurt you in the post. And then obviously their center does a terrific job scoring. So that'll get tested in this particular game, for sure.
