Halfway through his third season with the Buckeyes, E.J. Liddell has already tallied 1,000 career points at Ohio State.
The star forward entered Thursday's game against Minnesota just 12 points shy of the career milestone, but Liddell reached it in the second half at Williams Arena in Minneapolis. Liddell is the 60th player in Buckeye history to score at least 1,000 points.
"E.J. is such a special kid, he's such a special player," Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann said last week. "I think there's gonna be a few tears shed in the Holtmann house and a lot of homes when he moves on, because he's beloved by us and he's beloved around here.
