Iona Dismisses Tobin Anderson as Head Basketball Coach After Two Seasons

Anderson, known for leading Fairleigh Dickinson to a historic NCAA upset, departs with a 33-34 record at Iona.

Tobin Anderson was fired as Iona's head basketball coach after two seasons, with a 33-34 overall record during his tenure.
Anderson's 2024-25 season concluded with a 17-17 record and a loss in the MAAC tournament final to Mount St. Mary's.
He gained national recognition in 2023 for leading Fairleigh Dickinson to a historic NCAA Tournament upset over No. 1 seed Purdue as a No. 16 seed.
Anderson succeeded Rick Pitino at Iona, who had guided the program to two NCAA Tournament appearances in three seasons prior to his departure.
New Orleans Pelicans assistant Dan Geriot is reported as a leading candidate to replace Anderson, though no official announcement has been made.
