Boston College has fired men's basketball coach Earl Grant, ending his five-year tenure at the school, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel and multiple reports. Grant had three seasons remaining on his contract, which was set to run through the 2028-29 season. The Eagles finished the 2024-25 season with an 11-20 record and went 4-14 in ACC play.

Grant's dismissal follows Georgia Tech's firing of Damon Stoudamire earlier Sunday, marking the second ACC coaching change in one day. Under Grant's leadership, Boston College posted a 72-92 record, achieving a winning record in just one season during his five-year run. The Eagles finished ahead of only Georgia Tech in the ACC standings this season.

The timing of Grant's firing comes as a surprise given his contract extension through 2028-29. Boston College's decision reflects growing impatience with the program's direction, as the Eagles have struggled to compete in the ACC since Grant took over in 2021.
