The Ohio State men's basketball preseason power rankings continue today with fourth-year wing Tanner Holden at No. 8.

He has two seasons of collegiate eligibility remaining. EvanMiya.com ranks Holden as the No. 69 transfer.Holden’s junior season changed everything. A double-digit scorer in 33 of 36 games, he averaged 20.1 points to finish second in the league and No. 18 nationally. Holden ranked 19th nationally in fouls drawn per 40 minutes and was second in the country in both free throws made and free throws attempted .

Holden then scored 37 points on 10-of-14 shooting, was 14 for 16 from the line and grabbed 11 rebounds in a 93-82 win against Bryant. That sent the Raiders to San Diego, where they drew a first-round game against No. 1 seed Arizona. Holden scored 12 points on 3-of-10 shooting in an 87-70 loss that would also cap his career at Wright State.His decision to transfer from the Raiders was influenced by the previous decision of second-leading scorer Grant Basile to also transfer.

Although he did not play, Holden attended a basketball game at Richland Correctional Institution this summer as part of an inmate outreach program that also included Ohio State alumnus Aaron Craft.There will be an adjustment to the strength and length of consistently playing against high-major opponents, but Holden is expected to assume a significant role early on this rebuilt Ohio State team.
