Ohio State will be without sophomore guard/forward Eugene Brown for the Fort Myers Tip-Off, per an Ohio State spokesperson.
Ohio State will be without sophomore Eugene Brown for tonight’s game against Seton Hall and Wednesday’s game against either Florida or Cal. Brown is in concussion protocol and is not with the team in Fort Myers, a spokesperson for the team confirms.

Brown is currently in Columbus going through concussion protocols after suffering a hit to the head on a hard foul in last Thursday’s loss to Xavier.
As such, Brown will miss tonight’s game against Seton Hall as well as Wednesday’s game against the winner of the matchup between Florida and California.
Brown is averaging 3.5 points and 2.5 rebounds so far this season off the bench. His absence could open up more minutes for Cedric Russell, who has been relatively absent from the lineup since transferring from Louisiana.
