After months of waiting, and in the midst of a potential College Football Playoff run for the football team, the Ohio State basketball team is set to officially break the seal on the 2021-2022 season.
The Buckeyes welcome the Akron Zips to the Schott to kick the dust off and start forming an identity for this team. It has to be a little like Christmas morning for head coach Chris Holtmann as he tries to see what this team is all about in the bright lights for the first time.
It’s a team that has a lot of new parts and pieces that need to come together for this team to do some things those around the program think it can, so getting off to a hot start against an in-state foe would be ideal.
