Desire to Impact People Drove Jake Diebler Into Coaching
Jake Diebler didn’t always want to follow in his father’s footsteps, but the impact those footsteps were capable of making was simply too much to pass up.
Jake’s father, Keith, is a long-time Ohio high school basketball coach, winning a state title in 2004-2005 at Upper Sandusky when Jake was a senior and his younger brother Jon was a sophomore.
While Jon gets the notoriety for being the all-time leading scorer in Ohio high school basketball history (3,208), and for setting the Ohio State and Big Ten record for career three-pointers made as a Buckeye, Jake was pretty good in his own right. He set the Ohio high school career records for both assists (835) and steals (578), and ended up playing basketball at Valparaiso where he was a three-year starter.
Following his playing days at Valpo, Jake Diebler joined Bryce Drew’s coaching staff at Valparaiso, and then eventually joined Thad Matta’s OSU staff as a video coordinator from 2014-2016. For the last three years, he was part of Drew’s staff at Vanderbilt. Diebler was then named to Chris Holtmann’s Ohio State staff last month, replacing Mike Schrage, who took over the head coaching position at Elon.
Coaches’ kids ending up in coaching is a story as old as time. It’s almost a cliche at this point, and Diebler tried to fight that cliche, at least a bit.
“I tried to deny being a coach probably because I saw my dad as a coach, so I tried to deny it for the longest time,” Diebler said at his introductory press conference on Thursday.

Ohio State men’s basketball: New assistant coach Jake Diebler will earn $250,000 salary
By Adam Jardy
The Columbus Dispatch
Posted at 10:45 AMUpdated at 10:45 AM
Newly hired Ohio State assistant men’s basketball coach Jake Diebler signed a term sheet that pays him $250,000 a year until June 30, 2021, according to documents requested by The Dispatch.
Diebler, who was hired in April to replace Mike Schrage, is still having his full contract formalized, a standard procedure. He can receive university-approved increases as soon as Sept. 1, 2020, but he can earn bonuses along the way.
Should the Buckeyes win the Big Ten regular season or conference tournament title, Diebler will earn an 8.5% raise, $21,250. The same goes if the Buckeyes reach the Final Four, and a national championship win would net him a bonus of 15%, $37,500.
Ohio State also helped Diebler cover the costs of relocating from Vanderbilt and temporary housing for no more than six weeks. Diebler also receives benefits such as tickets to football and basketball games and a monthly car stipend.
An Ohio native who played at Valparaiso from 2005-09, Diebler was Ohio State’s video coordinator from 2014-16 before working as an assistant at Vanderbilt for the past three seasons. He is the older brother of former OSU star Jon Diebler.
Schrage, who was named head coach at Elon University and started his coaching career as an administrative assistant at Mississippi in 1998, was making a base salary of $325,000 in his final season with the Buckeyes.

Jake Diebler begins his third season on the Ohio State bench as an assistant coach in 2010-21 after spending three seasons on the Vanderbilt sidelines in the same capacity.
In his first year at Ohio State, the Buckeyes built an overall record of 21-10 with a league mark of 11-9, good enough for a tie for the No 5 spot in the league standings. The Big Ten was considered the best league nationally and the toughest top-to-bottom in perhaps the history of the league in 2020. The 2020 Big Ten Tournament, which, along with the 2020 NCAA Tournament was canceled following the completion of the Big Ten regular season. The Buckeyes again finished with a 21-10 record in 2020-21 season, which also was shortened by COVID-19. The Buckeyes advanced to the title game of the 2021 Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis after a fifth-place finished in league play (12-8).
Familiar with the Ohio State program after spending three years as the Buckeyes’ video coordinator (2014-16) and watching his brother Jon become the all-time 3-point record holder at both Ohio State and in Big Ten history (2008-11), Diebler returned to Ohio where he starred as a high school player in Upper Sandusky.
Jon is the all-time leading scorer in Ohio High School basketball history (3,208). Jake holds the all-time Ohio high school career records in both assists (835) and steals (578).
Prior to his first stint with the Buckeyes, Jake coached at Valparaiso with Bryce Drew, where he was part of a staff which helped lead Valparaiso to 22 wins and the regular-season championship in 2012, the first by Valpo since joining the Horizon League. Diebler, who also worked for Drew at Vanderbilt, helped the Crusaders to a berth in the 2012 Postseason National Invitation Tournament. In the 2012-13 season, the Crusaders posted a 26-8 overall record, won the Horizon League regular-season championship for consecutive years, and a berth in the 2013 NCAA Tournament. Diebler served as director of basketball operations during the 2010-11 season, helping the Crusaders to a 23-win season.

against Northwestern. Now the test will really begin when we go to Wisconsin and probably the home game against the pedsters.

“We went in and drew up E.J. Liddell scoring 17 points in five minutes,” Diebler said, jokingly. “No, E.J. playing the way he did, we knew that he was going to break through this (stretch). We knew we were going to have to rely on him with coach being out even more so than usual, and he delivered in a big way. His start helped ease everybody for the rest of the game.”

Keith Diebler had the ninth day of January all planned out.
The longtime Ohio high school basketball coach, now in his third season at Lakeside-Marblehead Danbury, was absolutely going to enjoy his last allowable day of deer muzzleloader season before beginning another week of teaching when a phone call from one of his sons changed everything. It went something like this:
Dad, you should really come to the Ohio State game.
Jake, I love you, but it’s my last day of deer season. I’ll follow along and be at another one soon.
No, dad, you should really be at the game. Here’s why.
Then, the elder Diebler kept one of the hardest secrets of his life through a sleepless night and into Sunday when Ohio State then announced that coach Chris Holtmann and assistant Ryan Pedon would be unavailable against Northwestern due to health and safety protocols. Their positive COVID-19 tests meant that, for the first time in his career at any level, assistant Jake Diebler would be acting head coach.
