WATCH: Ohio State coach Jake Diebler updates staff, outlook for season

In case you missed it, Ohio State basketball coach Jake Diebler made several announcements about updates to his staff for the 2026-27 season on Monday. The news means his coaching staff is now complete and even includes a Buckeye legend joining the fray.

That wasn’t all we heard from Diebler, however. He also made himself available in front of the media to discuss some offseason updates, and there was plenty said that gives us insight into how he feels about the roster and where things are going. In case you missed any of his comments, we have it in its entirety thanks to a two-part social media post from Adam Jardy of the Columbus Dispatch.

During his time at the podium, Diebler touches on the roster, the additions to the staff, discusses what he expects from freshman 5-star Anthony Thompson, and how much he expects from the team coming into the season.

We are still months away from Ohio State breaking the seal on the season, but in the meantime, as news becomes available, we’ll continue to be on top of it.
