South Florida fired men’s basketball head coach Brian Gregory on Friday after six seasons with the program.
The news comes one day after the Bulls dropped a 73-58 decision to East Carolina in the first round of the American Athletic Conference tournament.
Gregory, 56, posted a 79-107 record during his time with the Bulls, including a 14-18 mark this season.
“Brian has been a true ambassador for the University of South Florida,” vice president and athletic director Michael Kelly said. “Ultimately, our head coaches and programs are judged by on-court success, and we have not lived up to our expectations for men’s basketball. We thank Brian and his family for all they have done for USF and wish them the very best in their journey.”
Gregory owns a 327-287 record during head-coaching stints with Dayton (2003-11), Georgia Tech (2011-16) and South Florida.
South Florida announced in its release that it will begin a national search for a new head coach. The school also appointed assistant Larry Dixon as interim head coach.
