Hill out at Fordham

Bob Hill, a former Kansas University assistant coach, is out as men’s basketball coach at Fordham after the Rams compiled the worst record in school history (2-26) last season.

Hill, who assisted KU coaches Ted Owens and Larry Brown from 1977 to 1985, had six years remaining on a 10-year contract with the New York City school.

Hill and Fordham released a joint statement Wednesday saying they “amicably agreed to end their contractual relationship.”

The Rams finished last season with 15 straight losses. Hill, 54, never had a winning record in four seasons at the school, going 36-78 overall.

He was an NBA head coach with the Knicks, Pacers and Spurs. He most recently guided San Antonio from 1994-97, leading the Spurs to two Midwest Division championships.

Fordham has not had a winning season since 1991-92, when Nick Macarchuk led the Rams to the NCAA Tournament and an 18-13 record.
