In his first press conference as head coach of Ohio State University, Chris Holtmann was looking forward to his new team, new school and new job; leaving little room for the past.
Holtmann started the press conference by saying it wasn’t an easy decision to leave Butler. He thanked everyone from coaches Brad Stevens and Brandon Miller, who he worked under, to President James Danko and Barry Collier, vice president and director of athletics, who hired him.
“This was a decision that I had to work through,” he said.
