Fordham is finalizing a deal to hire UC Riverside’s Mike Magpayo as its new head basketball coach, ESPN reported Friday.
Magpayo, 45, coached the Highlanders to a 21-13 record and a berth in the NIT in 2024-25.
Fordham fired Keith Urgo last week after three seasons, including a 12-21 campaign in 2024-25.
Magpayo was the Big West Coach of the Year in 2022-23 and is 89-63 in five seasons at UC Riverside.
He previously was an assistant at UC Riverside (2018-20), Campbell (2014-17) and Columbia (2010-14).
