The University of Cincinnati is suspending men's basketball coach John Brannen effective immediately.
Cincinnati Director of Athletics John Cunningham announced Saturday that Brannen has been placed on paid administrative leave pending the completion of a university review into the program.
There is no timeline for UC's review.
Brannen, who is 32-21 since being hired at Cincinnati in April 2019, did not return requests for comment from The Enquirer.
The suspension comes eight days after Cunningham announced the university would review allegations related to Brannen and the men's basketball program.
