Ohio State head coach Jake Diebler breaks down the game of transfer Christoph Tilly
The Ohio State basketball team you see next season will be significantly different than the one you watched this past year. Several players have left the program through the transfer portal, and that has led to some significant additions coming to the banks of the Olentangy as well.
One of those incoming newcomers is center Christoph Tilly. He came to the Buckeyes after playing for the Santa Clara Broncos the last three years. He's a big man, but one that can step outside and use his athleticism to stretch the defense.
When the Buckeyes signed him out of the portal, it didn't make a big splash in college basketball, but don't tell that to OSU head coach Jake Diebler. He is excited about what the seven-footer can bring to the team next season as the Buckeyes look to rebound from a very disappointing season.
Diebler took to social media to discuss what Tilly can do for Ohio State on the court, and after you watch the short video, you too might be feeling rather optimistic about his chances to enhance the team's chance of making some noise this winter.

Let's hope Diebler is right and that Tilly brings a different dimension to Ohio State this season. The team sorely needs a turnaround and some momentum to get back to where many believe the program should be.
