Anthony Grant is in his third season as head coach at the University of Dayton.  He is the second Dayton alum in the modern era of Flyer basketball to be UD's head coach.  The first was Grant's coach, NABC Hall of Famer Don Donoher.  Grant played Dayton from 1983 to 1987 and was team captain and MVP as a senior.

UD named Grant as its 20th head coach in Flyer Basketball history on March 30, 2017.
 
"I am honored and humbled to be the head coach at the University of Dayton," Grant said.  "It's a great responsibility to take over at an institution that is so well-respected.  Anyone you talk to in college basketball would say our program is a successful one, but the potential is here for so much more."
 
Grant came back to Dayton after serving on the coaching staff of the NBA's Oklahoma City Thunder, working with athletes such as Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. He spent  two seasons on Billy Donovan's staff after nine seasons as head coach at Alabama and VCU and 13 seasons as a Division I assistant coach.
 
In 11 seasons as a head coach, Grant took his teams to three NCAA tournament appearances and seven postseason tournament berths. He has a career record of 228-139 (.621).
 
In six years at Alabama, Grant amassed a record of 117-85 (.579) while guiding the Crimson Tide to the 2012 NCAA Tournament, their first tournament berth since 2006.  He also took Alabama to the NIT on three occasions.
 
Prior to Alabama, the Miami, Fla. native spent three seasons as the head coach of VCU where he led the Rams to a 76-25 (.752) record and three consecutive Colonial Athletic Association Championships. VCU went to the NCAA tournament twice under Grant and was 45-9 (.833) in CAA games.
 
Prior to becoming a head coach, Grant spent 13 years as a respected Division I assistant coach. The last 10 years were at the University of Florida (1996-2006) where he served under Donovan. Grant helped lead the Gators to their first national title in 2006, and Florida won the national title again in 2007 with players he recruited and developed.
 
Grant is just the seventh Flyer coach in the last 70 years. In the modern era of UD basketball.
