Cincinnati men's basketball coach John Brannen has been suspended, per The Athletic's Justin Williams. The university has opened an investigation into Brannen after six players entered the transfer portal in a span of a few days due to a rift between Brannen and his players.
There is no timeline for his return and it's believed the review is being conducted in order to look for something that would justify the for-cause firing of Brannen.
"The University has always put the welfare of its student-athletes first," director of athletics John Cunningham said in a statement.
