Ohio State adding Kansas State transfer guard Ques Glover to bolster backcourt depth
After losing Taison Chatman to a season-ending knee injury, Ohio State is adding veteran guard Ques Glover for the 2024-25 season.Glover, who played 99 games in four seasons split between Florida and Samford (with a brief stop at BYU), joins the Buckeyes after a year spent at Kansas State, where he missed the entire 2023-24 season with a knee injury. A native of Knoxville, Tennessee, Glover averaged a career-high 19.2 points per game in his first year at Samford, where he was a first-team all-Southern Conference pick and a finalist for the Lou Henson Award, given out annually to the nation’s top mid-major player.
This will be Glover’s sixth year of college basketball. After playing four seasons, Glover was eligible for a medical redshirt last season, allowing him to now use the extra year of eligibility afforded to everyone who participated in the 2020-21 season to play for the Buckeyes.
A member of the 2019 recruiting class, Glover was a three-star prospect rated No. 366 nationally according to the 247Sports.com composite. He’s listed as a 6-0, 185-pound guard on Kansas State’s roster.
Glover is expected to give first-year coach Jake Diebler another experienced option in the backcourt. Third-year guard Bruce Thornton and fifth-year South Carolina transfer Meechie Johnson Jr. will assume the bulk of the minutes with freshman John “Juni” Mobley Jr. and Oakland and San Diego State transfer Micah Parrish expected to also play key roles.
Chatman’s injury, though, created a need for another roster addition. Although lightly used as a freshman, Chatman had seen more playing time with Diebler in place of Chris Holtmann and was poised for a more significant role as a sophomore before suffering a torn ACL early in summer workouts.
