Clark Kellogg won't be stepping foot on the court at St. John Arena Friday night. Nor will Herb Williams, Jim Smith or any other members of Ohio State's 1980 basketball team.
But this year's Buckeyes will don throwback jerseys to honor the group when they take on Cleveland State on Friday in the first game at St. John Arena since 2010, when fall graduation forced them out of the Schottenstein Center. The game, which will tip off at 8 p.m., is already sold out.
A raucous atmosphere is expected in the historic venue that holds 13,276 people.
