The 2023–24 Ohio University Bobcats men's basketball team represented Ohio University for the 2023–24 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Bobcats were led by fifth-year head coach Jeff Boals, who was a 1995 graduate of Ohio University.[1][2] They play their home games at the Convocation Center in Athens, Ohio as a member of the Mid-American Conference.[3][4] They finished 6–7 in non-conference play and started 1–3 in conference play. They rallied to win 12 of their final 14 conference games to finish the regular season 19–12 with a 13–5 in MAC play to finish tied for 2nd place. They defeated Western Michigan in the first round of the MAC tournament and lost to Akron in the second round[5][6][7]

Previous season

[edit]

The Bobcats started the 2022–23 season slowly but recovered to win seven out of their last nine regular season games to head into the MAC tournament at 18–13 as the fifth seed with a 10–8 conference record.[8] They defeated Ball State in the first round of the MAC tournament before losing to top-seeded Toledo to finish 19–14.[9][10]
