Jarrod 'Coach' Uthoff: What I want to say is... uh wait a minute.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but if you don't think passion, emotion, and 'want to' matter in sports, then you haven't played them. OSU was going nuts at every time out and we sauntered over to the bench with heads down. Who didn't think we would melt down late in the game? That in itself is telling.

Want- to is not the same as passion or emotion. Neither is going nuts. Remember why Hayden started the swarm?
