Jeremiah Francis wanted Chris Jent, pleased with Chris Holtmann

Pickerington Central 2019 point guard Jeremiah Francis was not shy about his preference to become the next Ohio State men’s basketball coach.

He wanted Chris Jent, a former Buckeyes player and assistant coach in 2016-17 under Thad Matta, to get the job.


“That would be really good,” Francis told Land of 10. “To have a person with an NBA mind at the college level. He catches my eye a lot because he knows the NBA game and I want to make it there. I’m sure he can develop players.”

As you probably know, it was not Jent that Ohio State hired, but Butler’s Chris Holtmann. After taking a little time on Monday to watch the new coach’s introductory press conference, Francis sees the chance for a positive change.

“I got done watching the press conference and he said he is going to let the players play,” Francis said. “He said they’re going to play tough, hard defense. I’m sad [Jent] is gone, but [Holtmann] was recruiting me when he was at Butler. I’ve not talked to him since he’s been to Columbus.”

Though Holtmann was busy making recruiting calls around Ohio on Saturday, Francis as a 2019 prospect was not one of the players receiving one. He says there’s a chance he’ll visit the school sometime soon, but that he could just wait for the season to roll around before more closely investigating the new Buckeyes.

“I might set something up before the season,” he said. “Just to see what he’s letting his players do, what type of game they’re playing.”

 

Jeremiah Francis checks in at No. 62 overall and No. 8 among point guards. Those seven PGs ahead of him must be pretty damn good https://t.co/tNvn2ji84X
