Ohio State Buckeyes Men's Basketball History

Ohio State first fielded a basketball team in 1898 and played its games through 1919 at an on-campus building known as the Armory. In 1912, the Buckeyes joined the Big Nine conference. Four years later, the league was rechristened to its current name as the Big Ten.

Over the years, Ohio State has been guided to success by several notable coaches, including Fred Taylor, who helmed the team between 1959 and 1976, and Jim O'Brien, whose tenure stretched from the late ’90s to the early ’00s. Future Basketball Hall of Famers John Havlicek and Jerry Lucas as well as 2010 Naismith College Player of the Year Evan Turner have also passed through the program. The Buckeyes' main competitors tend to be their fellow Big Ten members, although their biggest rival is the Michigan Wolverines.

The Columbus-based Buckeyes have earned 31 appearances in the NCAA March Madness tournament, making 10 advancements to the Final Four and winning the national championship in 1960. Meanwhile, Ohio State has played in the National Invitation Tournament 10 times, taking home titles in 1986 and 2008 and advancing to the quarterfinals in 2024.

    The schott is a great arena to go to. The students show their spirit and try hard to make it loud for their team. The only thing I thought needed improved was the misic Hells bells from AC|DC over and over again got a little old. Had a great time. Go Bucks!

    We went to this game for my dad's birthday and it was the best present he could have gotten. The unveiling of the banner for Coach Taylor had my dad in tears! I could not have asked for a better game!

    I enjoy watching the Bux anytime. I would enjoy having access to the bottom bowl occasiionally though and replace some of the non-cheering attendees. The halftime recogntiion for '60 Natl Champ team and Fred Taylor's banner unveiled were outstanding. Nice to see the Bux team display some unselfishness with the extra pass, great ball movement and excellent shooting touch while the role models from '60s were watching; now doubt helped by staying out of foul trouble and keeping the key players on court most of the day. We have to work on execution at the free throw stripe though.

    Great Game. Sat in section 301 row P. Not a good place to watch the game. Price too high for the view. It was also Upward basketball night. I felt that the parents need to be closer to their children. It is very hard to let a 6 year old go and not be able to see them for several minutes. However, it is a good program. P J Hill and Dallas Lauderdale were wonderful. I would think that something like that should be done at an earlier game time. Timing is everything.
