Missouri (12-21, 5-13 SEC) has relieved Cuonzo Martin of his duties as head coach.
Martin served as Missouri’s head coach for five seasons.
He compiled a 78-77 record with the Tigers and reached the NCAA Tournament in 2018 and 2021. Missouri was eliminated in the first round on both occasions.
Martin served as Tennessee’s head coach from 2011-14.
“Coach Martin represented the University with an extremely high level of class and dignity,” Missouri athletics director Desireé Reed-Francois announced. “He is a man of high character whom I have the upmost respect for, and we are grateful for his contributions to our program, on and off the floor.
“He is not only a coach, but is a teacher, and he has impacted the lives of every student-athlete who came through the program over the last five years. We wish him, Roberta, and their family nothing but the best in the future.”
