Papa was OUTSTANDING today. He's clearly better than GDG... I think Papa gonna be playing ALOT the rest of the year.
Ohio State Game Thread
- Thread starter Joe the Panther Fan
- Start date
He played 17 minutes and got 0 defensive rebounds. On a day that Ohio State offensive rebounds helped keep them afloat in the second half.
I'm thinking Mr Zach Austin is going to have an ESPN SportsCenter Top 10 tonight
Normally I'd say that Austin shooting eight threes in a game is too many, but eight was the right number today.
Maybe he thinks that "Barnes" is pronounced "Jones."
Helluva ending. Lowe and Leggett frustrate the living daylights out of me on offense sometimes, and the entire team infuriates me on the glass. Hopefully we can clean some things up, but this was a big win.
I really liked what I saw from Papa Kante, too.

I know the announcers aren't typically looking at the monitor, but it was kind of funny that both times he called him Jones his back was to the camera and you could see Barnes, Jr right there.
He did some things really well. He did some things that he's going to have to improve if we play him more going forward.
Similar to the announcers @ Greenbriar pronouncing Ish's last name incorrectly
Thank God Diaz got hit in the eye. Nobody ever said Kanta is all ACC, BUT DIAZ WAS GIVING US NOTHING.
So you don't think 0 defensive rebounds in 17 minutes from your center might be a problem?
Great game in the second half by Pitt!!! We limited O$U to 29 points in the second half and 13 in OT. The defense really picked up in the second half. Great job by Lowe with 28 points and Leggett with 21. Papa was outstanding and a real spark. He deserves to start as long as he can stay out of foul trouble. And of course the dagger by Austin with 0.4 seconds in OT. That's a replay for the ages.
I haven't looked at the stats yet, but I'd wager that almost half of O$U's second half points came from the foul line. The forced turnovers by us on them was also a big reason why we ended up winning
You really are bent on focusing on a weakness. How about giving him some credit. He has hardly played since the injury and did some good things for us. Even more importantly, we need frontcourt help badly. The sooner we can get 15 to 20 good minutes out of him, the better this team becomes.
He did a got job on help and recovery and put a body on guys on the defensive end. It wasn’t a coincidence we started to stop them.
Quit being a sourpuss.
He played a fantastic game for a freshman playing his first significant minutes in a hostile environment against a likely NCAA Tournament team.
Pitt doesn't come close to winning that game without his contributions. He certainly gave the team much more than GDG and Corhen did tonight.
Actually I have said in more than one post that he did some good things. Including praising his nice pump fake move that got him an and one and another trip to the foul line. That's something you can build off of on the offensive end.
Corhen was invisible. But we knew that going in with him. Some games he's on fire. The next game he disappears.
Can’t wait to watch this over the weekend. How can anyone not be excited about what’s possible this year?!
Leggett makes better decisions with the ball than basically anyone on the team so I don't relate to this one. Lowe definitely is a you have to take some of him forcing it nonsense unfortunately to get his positive contributions on the pick and roll.
Anyway top 5 Pitt regular season game for me since the 80s possibly.
Smh....
Capel just said KANTE was the difference in the game. Just stop you're sounding worse by the minute.
Are you saying he wasn’t a factor in this game? Oh no, it was the 0 defensive rebounds in 17 minutes that you saw
