Let’s talk about Ohio State Baseball, a program in a reset year that’s building toward something bigger. Under new coach Justin Haire, the Buckeyes battled through a tough season but showed fight, late-game heart, and flashes of what’s coming next.

If your athlete wants to be part of a program with high expectations and real opportunity, this is a team to watch—and we can help you build the plan to get there.

University Overview

• Location: Columbus, Ohio — big city energy meets strong Midwestern grit
• Enrollment: Large flagship university with thousands of undergrads, great infrastructure
• Academic Reputation: Solid across STEM, business, and liberal arts; respected in and out of athletics
• Athlete Support: Academic advisors, performance staff, and resources aiming to help student-athletes balance demands

‍

Baseball Program Highlights

• Ohio State operates in the Big Ten, where every conference series can turn on a few plays
• Long history: National champs in 1966, multiple Big Ten titles over decades.
• New chapter: Coach Justin Haire was hired in June 2024 after Bill Mosiello stepped down — fresh energy, focus, and rebuilding mentality.

‍

About the Head Coach

Justin Haire comes from a strong background (Campbell University) with many years of coaching in winning environments. He’s now leading Ohio State through a tough rebuild — the kind where you take hits, but you also set a foundation. His challenge: turn every “almost” into a growth moment.

2025 Season Recap & Highlights

• Final Record: 13-37 overall, 5-25 in Big Ten — the most losses in program history.
• Bright Spots:
  • They beat two ranked teams this year, including a doubleheader sweep over Oregon.
  • A dramatic walk-off win vs. Illinois to close the season, showing the team doesn’t lack fight.
• What Stood Out: While the record is rough, the effort in those big moments, plus the new coaching voice, makes this season a reset more than a fall.

Academic Excellence

OSU University offers respected programs across campus, and the Buckeyes uphold decent academic support for athletes. For families, one of the advantages here is public university resources, broad major options, and professional networks in a big city environment.

Why Ohio State Should Be on Your Radar

Because this isn’t about winning right now — it’s about becoming. If your athlete wants a path where growth is visible, where coaches are clear, expectations are high, and the chance to turn things around is real, OSU is heating up as a program to watch.
