While Jared Sullinger doesn't come to Ohio State with the kind of hype that surrounded Greg Oden, he is still a freshman prominent on the national stage.
"That's not who Jared is," Thad Matta said of the Oden comparisons. "But he's productive in a lot of other ways of getting numbers."
"Physically, he's already like a college senior," OSU assistant coach Jeff Boals said Thursday. "Jared has always had a great feel for the game. He's one of those guys that sees stuff happening before it happens."
