Texas Longhorns Expected to Dismiss Head Coach Rodney Terry After NCAA Tournament Loss

The reported decision follows a disappointing season and early tournament exit, highlighting the program's search for renewed leadership.

Rodney Terry is reportedly set to be fired after Texas' 86-80 First Four loss to Xavier in the NCAA Tournament on March 19, 2025.
The Longhorns ended their season with a 19-16 record, including a 6-12 mark in their first SEC season, and struggled with inconsistency throughout the year.
Terry, who took over as head coach in 2022 following Chris Beard's dismissal, has a 62-37 overall record at Texas but faced criticism for underperformance in key moments.
Athletic Director Chris Del Conte has not publicly commented on Terry's future, fueling speculation about potential replacements, including Xavier's Sean Miller.
Texas' decision reflects the program's high expectations and ambitions to regain national prominence in college basketball.
