COLUMBUS, Ohio –– Guard play has long been a calling card for new Ohio State assistant Tony Skinn, whether in his six-year coaching career or on the court himself, where breaking James Harden’s ankles in Olympic competition was just one notable exploit.

Two of Skinn’s guards at Seton Hall, 2020 Big East Player of the Year Myles Powell and all-conference honorable mention Quincy McKnight, played on NBA G League rosters this past season, and now the 38-year-old will have a chance to help mold several backcourt talents at Ohio State.
