The University of Texas has dismissed its head men's basketball coach, Rodney Terry. This decision followed the team's disappointing loss in the NCAA Tournament's First Four round. Despite a commendable record and tournament appearances in his tenure, including a previous Elite Eight run as interim coach, the recent First Four exit prompted a reassessment by the university. Athletic director Chris Del Conte stated the firing resulted from careful evaluation after the season's conclusion. Terry initially took over after the previous coach's dismissal and was later given a full contract. The team's inconsistency this season, despite promising talent, ultimately led to the coaching change.
