• How much better can Scott be without Aaron Craft? Everyone anticipated Scott would make a huge jump in his junior season, but he still had a hard time finishing and struggled immensely with his jump shot. How much of that had to do with having to play off the ball with Craft running the show? Maybe a lot.

We saw glimpses of what Scott can be in Ohio State's loss to Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals, a game in which he scored a career-high 18 points. He was aggressive, his shot was falling and he was confident with the ball in his hands.

If that's the Scott he can be consistently during his senior year – especially now that he'll be Ohio State's primary ball handler – he has the potential to be a first-team All-Big Ten type of player. And next season the Buckeyes are going to need that.
