Cincinnati has fired men's basketball coach coach Wes Miller after five seasons, sources told ESPN.
The Bearcats failed to go to the NCAA tournament in any of Miller's five seasons, ending this season on Wednesday with an 18-15 record.
The Bearcats had recovered from a disappointing start to the season by winning seven of nine games down the stretch to play themselves into NCAA tournament consideration. But in a must-win game against UCF in the Big 12 tournament on Wednesday, they blew an eight-point lead in the final two minutes of regulation and ultimately lost in overtime, 66-65.
