Former Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann has accepted an offer to become DePaul’s next men’s basketball coach, a source involved in the discussions said.
Holtmann will join the Blue Demons on a six-year deal, the source said.
DePaul, which fired coach Tony Stubblefield in January — the first power-conference coaching change of this year — finished this season 3-29 and 0-20 in the Big East. The Blue Demons ended the year with a 58-57 loss to Villanova on Wednesday in the Big East tournament.
Ohio State fired Holtmann in the middle of his seventh season in February.
