In what areas? Not disagreeing, but I don't think it is across the board and curious how you compare them.

Well, Craft is clearly the better defender but that's where it stops.

Scott is a better shooter, better penetrator, and because the defense actually has to pay attention to him, it frees him up to run the offense better. He'll have rough times here and there like anyone but Craft was so poor offensively that he really hindered the rest of the team on that side. Great heart, great defense, but very average offensively and in college, your PG has to be a threat unless he is surrounded by major talent, which Craft was not last year.

The talent is arguably better this year but it will look better because they're not playing 4 on 5 on the offensive end.

Honestly, I agree completely. Craft definitely struggled last year when he didn't have the weapons he had previously. With that said, Craft still goes down as one of, if not my favorite buckeye baller from my time of following the program.

This year could be a special year if they can gel quickly.

Definitely an easy guy to root for when he plays for your squad. Hustled his butt off on just about every play. Just didn't develop the complete game to go with his tremendous effort.

Yeah, but Sacred Heart isn't too good. Outside of Turk, they don't have anyone.

JD is their starting PG and just check out this highlight:
