Overall rank: # 3Conference ranking: # 2, the big ten Conference2009-10: 29-8, 14-4 postseason 2009-10: NCAA coach: Matta Eddie Cochran (156-54 at Ohio State, 258-85 as a whole) can replace point forward Evan Turner. During his last season with Ohio 6-7 guard averaged an amazing 20.4 points, 2 rebounds, 9.6.0.1.7 assists and steals. No one could stop him, and there are enough talent around him make it very difficult to double team. Buckeyes will properly without Turner and what is left is a very good group of players who are willing to take the spotlight.Lost keys:G p.j. Hill, (c) Kyle Madsen, Simmons Jeremy G, G Evan Turner key newbies: beginners rather dubious called ' six ' Eddie Cochran will need to make an impact. In the frontcourt, Jared Sullinger right should be enhanced in a starting role and authority sends Deshaun Thomas and Dr. Weatherspoon will need to provide some quality depth. Thomas a bit undersized at 6-6 play four spot, but it is very hard on the glass and a knack for scoring. Weatherspoon was an excellent athlete and not so much a bouncer, Thomas, but it may need some time to develop his game. The new guys on the perimeter will be required to provide nearly full depth. Jordan Sibert is the most talented scorer in the bunch, but Lenzelle Smith is a pretty good shooter who can make a splash bench. Aaron ship will battle starting point guard job, but you can ask too much of a freshman.Backcourt: William Buford, Jon Diebler and David Lighty start point. Proved, Turner is the best option of last season, but if those three States can share the ball handling duties, they should be fine. If you want you can go straight into the craft ruler and OSU can play a little bit less. Buford was the most dynamic scorer and finished second in points only Turner rebounds and assists last season. 6-5 Junior takes care of the ball and it most likely candidate to handle the ball most of the time. Diebler is knocked down by a bunch of arrows and his amazing 42.0 7.5 attempts from beyond the arc. Lighty struggled with injuries but when healthy he's a great wing that can score in various ways and help on the glass. Its ability to handle the ball will give a lot of versatility in the Buckeyes backcourt. Frontcourt: Dallas Lauderdale was lonely big man last season, but with a bunch of guards who are at least 6-5, she facilitated his life. Lauderdale not great scorer, but he did most of his attempts by connecting 77.3 shot attempts. So many other weapons around usually means Lauderdale, just had to catch the ball and dunk it. However, with an Interior, scoring threat for shooters open crimes quite knocking down long enough balls. More important than his scoring ability is ft. Lauderdale's hit glass and block shots. Lauderdale is the best rebounder in the big ten, but it can and it's 2 1 blocks per game made hard points against UBS.Who watch:Sullinger can be the key to this group. Younger, even taller and more talented brother of former UBS great J.J., 6-9, 280-pound freshman should give Buckeyes threat to legitimate scoring in the paint and hard rebounder in the trash. If Lauderdale and Sullinger, in the starting lineup, OSU would be much better rebounding team and even could shoot better than 49.2 per floor, it was the fifth best in the country. Sullinger-shooter and passer, which will remain in Lauderdale lineup and do the dirty work, although Sullinger roaming around and makes scoring.Final forecast: Lack depth last year may have had trouble by March. The team had to endure six games without Turner and it became clear that the big drop off in talent after the start of the five. The story may be the same this year if freshmen from Sullinger, not ready to make a significant contribution. Bufford, Diebler Lighty on average and at least 34 minutes per game last year and giving them a break every once in awhile is useful as long as there is someone who can fill them in minutes.Predictions post season tournament:NCAA forecast starting five: William Buford junior guard 14.4 ppgJon Diebler, senior guard 13.0 ppgDavid Lighty, senior, 12 6 ppgDallas Lauderdale, senior, 6.5 ppgJared Sullinger, freshman, NAM last season
