Thad Matta is back in college basketball, and a couple of his former Buckeye players are joining him.
The former Ohio State coach is bringing some Buckeye flavor to his new staff as Ohio State greats Greg Oden and Jon Diebler are set to join Matta’s staff at Butler.
David Woods of the Indy Star was the first to report the news.
Oden spent last season as a graduate assistant at Ohio State under Chris Holtmann after previously serving as a student manager while finishing his degree. Diebler steps into the coaching ranks for the first time after recently retiring from his professional career.
