Fran Dunphy Reportedly Stepping Down as Temple HC After Next Season
Temple men's basketball head coach Fran Dunphy will reportedly step down following the 2018-19 season.
According to Seth Davis of The Fieldhouse, Dunphy will be replaced by current Temple assistant coach and former NBA guard Aaron McKie.
The 69-year-old Dunphy has been Temple's head coach since the 2006-07 season after a 17-year run at Penn.

Dunphy owns a 247-152 record at Temple, and he has led the Owls to the NCAA tournament on seven occasions.
Since going to the tourney in six straight seasons from 2007-08 through 2012-13, however, Temple has only made it once in the past five campaigns.
That drop-off in success coincided with a move from the Atlantic-10 Conference to the American Athletic Conference.
After going 16-16 in 2016-17, the Owls went 17-16 this season and fell in the first round of the NIT to Penn State.
During his 29-year college head coaching career, Dunphy is 557-315 overall with 16 trips to the NCAA tournament. He has never advanced past the Round of 32 in March Madness, however.
The 45-year-old McKie has been an assistant under Dunphy at Temple since 2014 after serving as an assistant with the Philadelphia 76ers from 2007 through 2013.
McKie, who had a standout playing career at Temple collegiately, spent 13 seasons in the NBA as a player with the Portland Trail Blazers, Detroit Pistons, 76ers and Los Angeles Lakers.
