UNLV fires head coach Kruger after four seasons
Briefly

UNLV men's basketball coach Kevin Kruger has been let go after four seasons following a disappointing quarterfinal loss to Utah State in the Mountain West Conference tournament. Despite a total of 76 wins, Kruger never led the team to the NCAA tournament, which the program aspires to achieve. Athletic Director Erick Harper emphasized the need for change to meet their championship goals. The search for a new head coach is underway as the team looks to improve its standings.
"Our expectation is to contend for and win championships. After evaluating the program as a whole, I believe a change is necessary to achieve these goals."
"UNLV has already begun its search for a new head coach, according to the team's statement."
