Villanova fired Kyle Neptune after a three-year run where he succeeded Hall of Fame coach Jay Wright and failed to ever make the NCAA Tournament.

Villanova University announced today that it is making a leadership change in its Men’s Basketball program effective immediately. Kyle Neptune will no longer serve as the William B. Finneran Endowed Head Coach after three seasons at the helm.

After three straight seasons of missing the NCAA Tournament, Villanova has fired head men’s basketball coach Kyle Neptune.
