Overview
- Air Force announced Friday that Joe Scott is no longer its men’s basketball coach, describing the move as a mutual parting.
- Scott had been suspended Jan. 17 during an investigation into his treatment of cadet‑athletes, and no findings have been released publicly.
- Athletic director Nathan Pine praised Scott’s past contributions but said the program requires a new voice and approach to drive culture and success.
- Assistant coach Jon Jordan has served as interim head coach, and the school has not said whether he will continue beyond this season.
- The Falcons are 3-23 overall and 0-15 in Mountain West play with a 19-game losing streak, and some outlets characterized Scott’s exit as a firing despite the academy’s wording.
