The Ohio State 2017-18 regular season won’t tip off until Friday night, but Buckeye fans will get a preview later today of what might be in store for Chris Holtmann’s first season in Columbus, as Ohio State hosts Wooster in their lone exhibition game of the season. Even though this is just an exhibition game, this contest will mean a little more to new Ohio State assistant coach Ryan Pedon, who graduated from Wooster in 2000 with a degree in communications.
New head coach Chris Holtmann has some big shoes to fill, as Ohio State was able to lure the 45 year old head coach from Butler after the Buckeyes parted ways with Thad Matta, whose 337 wins with the school are the most in program history.
