DePaul has fired third-year men’s basketball coach Tony Stubblefield.

“After evaluating the current state of our men’s basketball program, a decision was made to make a change in the head coaching position,” athletic director DeWayne Peevy said in a prepared statement. “We want to thank Coach Stubblefield for his hard work and determination over the last two-plus seasons to move our basketball program forward through a new era for DePaul Athletics. Unfortunately, we did not meet our goals.” 

Stubblefield won barely one-third of his games at DePaul, finishing with a record of 28-54 (.341). This season’s team is off to a nightmarish 3-15 start, with an 0-7 mark in the Big East.

Matt Brady will serve as interim head coach as Peevy searches for Stubblefield’s successor.
