Missouri has fired basketball coach Kim Anderson after less than three seasons with his alma mater.
Tigers athletic director Jim Sterk said in a statement Sunday that he asked Anderson to step down after next week's SEC Tournament. Missouri is the No. 14 seed and plays Auburn on Wednesday night.
Anderson took over a program in disarray after leading Central Missouri to the Division II national championship but was never able to get things going in the right direction. He compiled a 26-67 record with the Tigers, who were 7-23 overall and 2-16 in the SEC this season.
Anderson was a conference player of the year for Missouri before spending two stints as Norm Stewart's assistant coach.
