Former Iona basketball head coach Tobin Anderson provided his first statement since shockingly being fired after two seasons with the Gaels. The previous head coach of Fairleigh Dickinson was the toast of college basketball after his team's legendary tournament upset of No.

The Gaels just lost the MAAC championship game to Mount Saint Mary's on Saturday, bringing their 2024-25 season to an end. It was big for Iona to even be in the conference title game after Anderson took over the team from Rick Pitino in 2023 and essentially started from scratch.

Iona University fired men's basketball coach Tobin Anderson on Monday, two years after he was hired to replace Rick Pitino.
