In our Big Ten Offseason Evaluation series, we’ll break down the roster changes and outlook for all 18 Big Ten basketball teams heading into the 2024-25 season. Next up is Ohio State, which enters its first season with coach Jake Diebler.
Ohio State basketball begins a new era in 2024-25 under coach Jake Diebler, who replaced Chris Holtmann in February after a 14-11 start to the season. The Buckeyes had a late-season resurgence with Diebler, going 8-3 down the stretch and reaching the NIT Elite Eight.
Here’s a full breakdown of Ohio State’s offseason roster changes, plus its outlook for the 2024-25 season.Roddy Gayle Jr. , Zed Key , Felix Okpara , Scotty Middleton , Bowen Hardman Meechie Johnson , Micah Parrish , Aaron Bradshaw , Sean Stewart Bruce Thornton , Devin Royal , Evan Mahaffey , Taison Chatman , Austin Parks , Kalen EtzlerBruce Thornton will be one of the best point guards in the conference after earning All-Big Ten third-team honors. As a sophomore, he averaged 15.
Diebler also landed fifth-year senior Micah Parrish out of the transfer portal from San Diego State. The 6-foot-6 wing was part of the Aztecs’ Final Four run in 2023, and he’ll provide a veteran, defensive-minded presence. Sophomore Devin Royal, also a 6-foot-6 wing, played a bigger role after Diebler took over, and he’s a breakout candidate this yearOhio State’s success depends upon whether transfer big men Aaron Bradshaw and Sean Stewart are ready to contribute at the college level.
