Matt Brady out at James Madison as men's basketball coach
Mar 14, 2016 - 1:59 PM HARRISONBURG, Va. (AP) Matt Brady is out as the men's basketball coach at James Madison.The school announced Monday that it will begin a national search for a new coach immediately after Brady and JMU agreed to part ways after eight seasons.
Brady compiled a 139-127 record with the Dukes and guided them to the 2013 Colonial Athletic Association championship and an NCAA Tournament berth.
Athletic director Jeff Bourne says Brady helped James Madison recover from ''a long period of drought'' but added that the Dukes have not advanced past the CAA quarterfinals in seven of eight seasons and have experienced a decline in home attendance.
With the school seeking to raise money for a new convocation center, Bourne says, ''It is imperative that we have the right coach in place.''
