Greg Oden to Return to Ohio State as a 'Manager'

Ohio State coach Thad Matta is adding another big man to his program, one which Buckeye fans know quite well.

Greg Oden will be returning to Ohio State as a "manager," according to his good friend and former teammate Mark Titus. Oden is currently working to finish his degree.

The #scoops just keep coming, folks: MULTIPLE SAUCES tell me Greg Oden will join OSU bball team as a "manager" while he finishes his degree.

If you're wondering what all that entails, allow Titus to explain things further.

He's essentially just going to practice w/ the team and dunk all over OSU bigs. But still - he's technically joining the manager fraternity.

This is not a drill. And Eleven Warriors has confirmed the news.

I'm 100% serious. Just having fun breaking (not really that important) news for the first time in my life. https://t.co/n2iGHHjc5O

On a day where Ohio State found a replacement for Jeff Boals as an assistant coach and landed a commitment, this is clearly the most important news of the day.
