Syracuse has fired men’s basketball coach Adrian Autry after the Orange failed to reach the NCAA tournament in each of his three seasons leading the program.

Autry’s tenure ended without an NCAA bid, a benchmark that often defines success at the high-major level. Syracuse did not make the tournament during any of his three years at the helm, prompting the program to make a coaching change.

Three seasons without March Madness

The decision closes a three-year stretch in which Syracuse remained outside the NCAA tournament field. The program’s absence from March Madness across Autry’s full tenure was the central result cited in the move.

Syracuse will now turn to the next phase of its coaching search and program direction after parting ways with Autry.
