Not sure, but I do believe the last 2 years have been right around the 12/13 of this month...My guess would be Thursday the 12th...

I am sure a call to the athletic office, and they would be more than willing to give the info out...

OHIO STATE BASKETBALL
Ohio State men, women basketball teams ready to run

Thursday, October 11, 2007 Doug Lesmerises

Plain Dealer Reporter
Columbus- Two back-to-the-basket eras have ended at Ohio State. What's left are the banners that serve as reminders of the back-to-back Big Ten titles in 2006 and 2007 won by both the OSU men's and women's basketball teams.
With practice beginning on Friday, the Buckeyes are racing into the future, both teams perhaps best defined by native Clevelanders, each enriched by summers playing international basketball. Centers Greg Oden and Jessica Davenport, last season's dominant inside players in the Big Ten, are gone. Sophomore wingman David Lighty, from Villa Angela-St. Joseph, and freshman center Jantel Lavender, of Cleveland Central Catholic, are now.
The plans for both teams are similar. The women feature four freshmen, the men have six, and women's coach Jim Foster and men's coach Thad Matta are looking to get the kids ready, grab the ball and, even more than last year, go, go, go.

I am very excited to see the young guys hit the court, especially Diebler and KK.

I am anxious to see Diebler play against Big 10 competition. I think that he was highly underrated during his high school years because he did not play that much AAU. I want him to show the people who overlooked him how good I think he can play.:io:
