re: Your school's Starting 5 in Basketball this season

OSU's starting lineup in the final game against Siena last year was:

PG: PJ Hill

SG/PG/SF/coach/equipment manager/athletic trainer/superman: Evan Turner

F/C: Dallas Lauderdale

SG: Jon Diebler (he's the Ohio High School All-time scoring leader, which is similar to Herman Johnson's size as a baby and McCoy and Shipley are roomates at UT).

SG: William Buford

As, you can see, we're not a very big team.

All these guys are back. The only guy that left was BJ Mullens. No one graduated.

David Lighty, who was arguably our best player heading into last year, got hurt early in the year and took a medical redshirt. He'll be a starter. Lauderdale's missing the 1st month of this year with injury. He'll probably be replaced by UAB transfer Zisis Sarikopoulos at center. If/when he gets back, he'll probably move back into the lineup.

Opening game lineup, if I had to guess, without looking at any Buckeye previews for this year:

PG: Evan Turner-Junior

SG: Jon Diebler-Junior

SG: William Buford-Soph

SF: David Lighty-Junior

C: Zisis Sarikopoulos-Soph

PG PJ Hill (senior), PG Jeremie Simmons (senior), SG Walter Offutt (soph), and C Kyle Madsen (senior) contributing off the bench.

Sorry for the long post. I'm pretty pumped about Buckeye basketball this year.
