Saint Louis University Parts Ways with Head Coach Travis Ford

Following a disappointing season, the university seeks new leadership for its basketball program.

Saint Louis University has parted ways with head coach Travis Ford after eight seasons, following a disappointing 13-20 season.
Ford led the Billikens to one NCAA tournament appearance in 2019 but has struggled to maintain success in recent seasons.
Indiana State's Josh Schertz is being considered as a primary target for the head coach position at Saint Louis.
The decision to move on from Ford comes after the Billikens' season ended with a loss to Duquesne in the Atlantic 10 tournament.
Saint Louis is seen as a desirable coaching position due to its location in a talent-rich city and its facilities, including the 10,000-seat Chaifetz Arena.
