Not counting years in which wins were vacated because of NCAA violations, this is the worst men’s basketball season in FIU history in terms of conference record, and not even a win on Saturday would change that fact.
The Panthers are 2-15 in Conference USA and wrap up their dismal season on the road Saturday night at UAB (16-14, 9-8). If the Panthers lose, as expected, they would finish 6-25 overall, matching the 1990-91 FIU team for fewest wins in the program’s 36-year history.
The 25 losses would also tie the 2009-2010 season for the most defeats in FIU history.
