Ohio State men's basketball is coming off a disappointing season by its high standards. The Buckeyes, who finished 19-12 overall and 11-7 in the Big Ten Conference, failed to make the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2008.
Last season's struggles are the primary reason why Ohio State is not ranked in the Associated Press preseason Top 25. The Buckeyes are among the others receiving votes, trailing five Big Ten Conference schools that are ranked.
Navy head coach Ed DeChellis is here to tell you that Ohio State will be much improved this season.
