  • Ohio State Men's Basketball: Buckeyes Going Big Up Front In 2026-27

    Ohio State Men's Basketball: Buckeyes Going Big Up Front In 2026-27
    Jun 24 2026
    Jake Diebler's third full season as Ohio State's head coach is going to have a different - and bigger - look than the previous two years. The Buckeyes loaded up with big bodies in the front court to allow Amare Bynum to play farther from the hoop, and those bigger players should give OSU the ability to throw a number of different looks at opponents.

    In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, Marcus Hartman, the new basketball insider at BuckeyeInsiders.com, joins host Tom Orr to discuss the four big players that Diebler is going to roll out this year, and how they could change the game for the basketball Buckeyes.
    • Ivan Njegoven, who is ready to take on a bigger role in year three
    • Andrija Jelavic, a Kentucky transfer who can stretch the floor
    • Josh Ojianwuna, a big-bodied Baylor transfer who can provide muscle down low
    • Vuk Lazerovic, a freshman who may be a year away from taking on a role

    Jun 21 2026
    The Ohio State men's basketball team made its first NCAA Tournament appearance in four years last season. Now, Jake Diebler and the Buckeyes are looking to build on that this year, and they have an intriguing combination of returning standouts, veteran transfers, and a pair of 5-star true freshmen who could make that possible.

    • 5-star freshman Anthony Thompson, whose athleticism could be a gamechanger
    • 5-star freshman LJ Smith, a late addition to the roster, who enrolled a year earlier than expected
