Iowa is set to dismiss head coach Fran McCaffery after 15 seasons, sources told ESPN on Friday.

An official announcement could come as early as Friday afternoon. He's the school's all-time wins leader with 297.

Iowa's season ended Thursday with a 106-94 loss to Illinois in the second round of the Big Ten tournament, with McCaffery getting ejected in the second half after being assessed two technical fouls for arguing with the officials.

The Hawkeyes finished the campaign 17-16 overall and 7-13 in the Big Ten. There was some optimism following a 12-4 start that included a 25-point win over Indiana on Jan.
