Boise State's Greg Graham out as head coach

Fri 12th, March 2010

Boise, ID (Sports Network) - Boise State University announced Friday it has relieved men's head basketball coach Greg Graham of his duties.

The Broncos' season came to an end Thursday with an 84-60 loss to Utah State in the opening round of the Western Athletic Conference Tournament to finish 15-17 and 5-11 in league play.

"We appreciate everything that Coach Graham and his staff have contributed to Boise State the past eight years," Boise State director of athletics Gene Bleymaier said. "We felt that in the best interest of the program we needed to make a change."

Graham took over as head coach prior to the 2002-03 season and guided BSU to a 142-112 record in eight seasons at the helm. He was just three years removed from a share of the conference championship, a trip to the NCAA Tournament and being named WAC Coach of the Year in 2007-08 when the Broncos set a school record for wins with 25.

Graham was the top assistant for Oregon prior to joining Boise State. Prior to his five years at Oregon, Graham was an assistant at St. Mary's College in California, New Mexico, San Jose State and San Diego State.
