Southern University men’s basketball coach fired after 5 seasons

The Southern University men’s basketball coach has been fired after five seasons. The university is conducting an ongoing search for a replacement coach.

Southern University's men's basketball program is looking for a new leader after the school announced Wednesday that Sean Woods would not be returning as coach.

Woods ends his five-year tenure with a 64-82 overall record.

"At this time, we felt it was necessary to make a change in leadership of our men’s basketball program, over the last five years we have fallen short of our standard and expectations for our men’s basketball program," Athletic Director Roman Banks said in a statement. "We thank Sean and his family for all they have done for SU and wish them the very best in their journey."

Banks said a search for a replacement is underway.
