Former Portland Trail Blazers All-Star Terry Porter has been dismissed from his Head Coaching position at the University of Portland. The UP released an announcement today, which Jeff Borzello of ESPN relayed.
“I would like to thank Coach Porter for his service to the University,” Portland vice president for athletics, Scott Leykam said in a statement. “The timing of these changes is never ideal, especially with all the disruptions this season that have been brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Ultimately, it was decided that it was best to move forward now and focus on the future of the program and the search for the next head coach.
