Iona already has eyes on a replacement as the school is targeting New Orleans Pelicans assistant coach Dan Geriot, according to ESPN. Geriot, a former Cavaliers assistant, spent one season as the head coach of Cleveland’s G League affiliate in 2021-22.

Iona announced Monday that it is firing men's basketball coach Tobin Anderson after just two seasons, leaving Anderson's inner-circle stunned. The former FDU coach, who famously orchestrated a historic upset of No. 1 seed Purdue in the 2023 NCAA Tournament, posted a 33-33 mark with Iona as Rick Pitino's successor.

Iona basketball is losing an All-MAAC star to the transfer portal in the aftermath of Tobin Anderson’s firing. The surprising decision marks a period of uncertainty for one of the most successful mid-majors in the past decade.
