Chris Holtmann has a chance to revive the DePaul program — and his own coaching career — at the same time.The new-look Blue Demons will tip off the season trying to keep visiting Southern Indiana from pulling off an upset Monday night in Chicago.Following a brutal 3-29 season, DePaul hired Holtmann, who led Butler and Ohio State to the NCAA Tournament a combined seven straight seasons in which the tourney was held. However, his Buckeyes went 16-19 in 2022-23 and 14-11 in 2023-24 before he was fired on Feb. 14.Now, Holtmann’s guides a Blue Demons’ program that hasn’t had a winning season since 2018-19. Adding more intrigue, DePaul doesn’t return a single player from last season’s squad, with more than 10 coming in via the transfer portal.”Target a specific style of play that we want to play and recruit to that,” said Holtmann, who wants his team to shoot a high 3-point percentage and push the pace.”We’ve also really tried to target guys who can rally around the idea of making DePaul relevant again.”Jacob Meyer (15.7 ppg at Coastal Carolina in 2023-24), Isaiah Rivera (15.4 at UIC), David Skogman (13.3 ppg at Davidson) and Conor Enright (started 33 games at Drake) could be DePaul’s core this season.
