The Land-Grant Women's Basketball Podcast is a show dedicated to coverage of the Ohio State women's basketball team. Each Monday during the basketball season, LGHL recaps recent games, previews upcoming contests and talks with those in and around the Ohio State women's basketball universe. Hear directly from players and coaches and receive additional context behind what they say to the media.

In the debut episode of the Land-Grant Women's Basketball Podcast, beat writer and host Thomas Costello talks about his trip to the Chicagoland area for Big Ten media day.

Ohio State women's basketball head coach Kevin McGuff joined his fellow coaches in boosting up the stature of the new expanded 18-team Big Ten conference. When talking about the Buckeyes, he discussed how Taylor Thierry needs to grow in her final season, new recruits and what he'll be doing instead of going to a haunted house.

Also, how will Madison Greene be vital to the Buckeyes' success on and off the court. Plus, what Thierry sees as her areas of improvement heading into the 2024-25 season.
