Three different Dayton players told the Dayton Daily News on April 1, when new coach Anthony Grant was introduced as head coach, Ostrom had already told them he was joining Miller’s staff. Miller said reporters in Indiana last week he wanted to announce his entire staff at once. Indiana has not officially made the announcement as of Sunday afternoon.
