Mike Magpayo has been appointed as the new head coach for Fordham's basketball program, succeeding Keith Urgo after a disappointing run of back-to-back losing seasons. Urgo was dismissed partly due to his team's combined record of 25-41 over the last two years and a series of NCAA violations that resulted in probation. Fordham's previous staff provided impermissible benefits to recruits, including extravagant entertainment during official visits, which led to the current penalties. Magpayo inherits a tough situation as he seeks to rebuild the program.
