In its news release tonight officially announcing Chip Kelly as Ohio State’s offensive coordinator, Ohio State also revealed the official start date for this year’s spring practices: Tuesday, March 5.

That means the Buckeyes will be back on the field for their first practice of 2024 just 25 days from today. Ohio State will hold 15 practices over 39 days, culminating with its annual spring game at Ohio Stadium on April 13.

Ohio State announced earlier this week that the spring game will kick off at noon. Spring game tickets, which start at $10, went on sale this morning and can be purchased via Ticketmaster.
