While we’re all basking in the glow of Ohio State football and its rather memorable win over Notre Dame last Saturday, the basketball team is starting to grease the wheels and prime the pump for the start of its basketball journey.
In fact, head coach Chris Holtmann held his annual Ohio State basketball media days press conference on Tuesday in front of reporters to detail the season ahead and answer questions for the throng that made it out. We know this might be flying a bit under the radar in the midst of all that’s going on with the football team, but it’s important to hear from the head coach as we begin to keep an eye on hoops and what’s coming soon.
Hotlmann appears to be rather optimistic about what this group can do and said as much not only in his opening statement, but in a few of the responses to the line of questioning he got from the media. If you missed any of the press conference, we have the video and audio thanks to our friends at the Columbus Dispatch.
In the just over 20 minute appearance, Holtmann discusses his excitement for the group, utilizing the pain and growing from last year, some of the personnel groupings you might see, the freshmen class coming in, and more.
As a reminder, Ohio State will tip off the season on November 6 vs. Oakland. That’s only about five weeks away and will be here before you know it. We’ll have plenty leading up to the season and will always be there for analysis and reaction to what we see during the schedule as well.
