Ohio State’s New Players, Coaches Feeling Optimistic About Future Amid Opening Month of Summer Workouts

It’s hard to overstate just how much assembly will be required for the Ohio State roster before the start of the new college basketball season.

With five true freshmen and three transfer portal additions giving the Buckeyes eight new faces, not to mention a pair of first-year walk-ons, Ohio State’s on-court personnel is going to look a whole lot different than it did a year ago. Even Chris Holtmann’s coaching staff has seen turnover, with Jack Owens entering the fold and Mike Netti promoted to assistant coach after the offseason exits of Ryan Pedon and Tony Skinn.
