Such are the perils of playing basketball (and why I recommend aspiring players never cross either three-point line or leave the ground in attempt to rebound) but it's good to see Lyle took the cosmetic blow in stride. Dentists deal with chipped teeth every day.

Hopefully Lyle recovers in time for Ohio State's 2016 season tips off in November against Navy.
