Ohio State basketball loses to Iowa: 5 things we learned

Ohio State went to Iowa and got down big early and couldn’t reel things back in. Here are five things we learned after the loss.

Who is the leader of this team?

It’s becoming increasingly clear that there’s not the one guy on this team that’s going to stop the bleeding. When things are going well, everyone is scoring and the collective unit swimming in the same direction. But man when it’s not, this team feels like five individuals out there trying to take sole possession of bringing the team back.

It’s not like this team doesn’t have some competitive heart, it just doesn’t have the smart killer instinct in the right places to plug a hole in the dam when it matters. At this point, the Buckeyes are who they are, and it’s going to be a problem in the postseason again.
