Washington coach Mike Hopkins will not be returning to the Huskies next season, according to multiple reports Friday.
Hopkins has one season left on his contract and will be owed $3.1 million, according to reports.
Hopkins, 54, has a 118-105 record in his seven seasons at Washington. The Huskies are 17-14 this season and 9-11 in Pac-12 play entering next week’s conference tournament.
Washington completed the regular season with a 74-68 road win over No. 18 Washington State on Thursday night.
Washington has reached the NCAA Tournament just once during Hopkins’ tenure. The Huskies went 27-9 in that 2018-19 season, their best mark under Hopkins.
Washington experienced losing seasons the next two campaigns, including a horrific 5-21 mark in the 2020-21 season.
Before his Washington stint, Hopkins spent 22 seasons on the staff at Syracuse. He went 4-5 as interim coach in the 2015-16 season when Jim Boeheim was serving a suspension.
Washington’s next coach will lead the program into its first season in the Big Ten.
