On March 15, 2015,Anthony Grant was fired from Alabama.[1] On April 5, 2015, ESPN reported thatAvery Johnson had verbally agreed to become the new head basketball coach at theUniversity of Alabama, replacing Grant.[2] The following day, the university officially announced Johnson's hiring.[3]

On March 21, 2015Rick Ray was fired by Mississippi State.[4] On March 24, 2015,Ben Howland was hired as the 20th head coach of Mississippi State replacing Ray.[5]

On March 27, 2015, Tennessee firedDonnie Tyndall after the NCAA notified Tennessee officials of possible NCAA violations at Southern Miss. The violations centered around improper financial aid for two players, as well as academic problems with junior college transfers. According to a copy of Tyndall's termination letter, Tyndall had lied to Tennessee officials about the extent of the violations on several occasions, and had also deleted several emails from an old email account even though he was aware he would have been questioned about activity on that account by the NCAA.[6] At a press conference announcing Tyndall's firing, athletics director Dave Hart said that he would have never hired Tyndall had the true extent of the violations at Southern Miss been known.Texas head coachRick Barnes was named Tyndall's replacement.

On April 30, 2015,Billy Donovan agreed to a $30 million, multi-year deal to coach theOklahoma City Thunder,[7] replacingScott Brooks who previously coached the Thunder for seven seasons.[8] On May 7, 2015,Louisiana Tech head coachMike White was named as Donovan's replacement.
