We take inventory of Ohio State's offseason roster moves and break down how the 13 scholarship players will mesh together following the Buckeyes' final transfer addition.
Both starters for a significant chunk of last season, Ohio State’s two returning juniors figure to play important roles for the Buckeyes this year, although it’s likely one of them has a clearer path to big minutes than the other.
Eugene Brown, who started 10 of the final 12 games of the season for the Buckeyes, may have a tougher road to remaining a starter given several of Ohio State’s roster moves this offseason. The return of Sueing and additions of Likekele and 6-foot-6 guard Tanner Holden could all cut into Brown’s potential minutes, although Holtmann said multiple times this past year that Brown would have a big role for the Buckeyes in 2022-23.
McNeil’s presence on the floor as a 36.8 percent 3-point shooter will aid the Buckeyes in the absence of Ahrens, and he’s proven to be a capable scorer in general by putting up 12.2 points per game in each of the past two seasons in the Big 12. McNeil may also handle the ball more for the Buckeyes than he did at West Virginia, and will be another veteran guard to populate a backcourt that will have an almost completely different makeup than last season.
