Utah has fired men's basketball coach Craig Smith after nearly four seasons, it was announced Monday.
The Utes fell to 15-12 -- and 7-9 in the Big 12 -- after losing at UCF on Sunday. Utah beat Kansas and Kansas State in back-to-back games earlier this month and also own a win over BYU.
"I want to thank Craig for his work and commitment since he arrived in Salt Lake City," athletic director Mark Harlan said in a statement. "He has led us to special moments and memorable victories, and Craig has poured his heart into building our current team.
