As was expected, Rutgers men's basketball coach Eddie Jordan was fired today by athletic director Patrick Hobbs. His third season as head coach ended after Rutgers lost in the opening round of the Big Ten tournament.

Eddie Jordan's combined record in three seasons was 29-68 for a 29% winning percentage. In conference play, with the AAC in his first season), Rutgers went 8-46 for a 15% winning percentage.
