Postseason
Following the conclusion of the season, on March 15, 2010, Speraw was fired as head basketball coach. Speraw had amassed a 279-233 record over a 17-year stretch as the Knights head coach. On March 30, UCF announced current Marshall head coach, Donnie Jones, as the new UCF head coach.[5]
Notes
- ^ UCF vacated its 15 regular season wins from the 2009–10 season after it was discovered that there was an ineligible player on the team. The team's pre-sanction record was 15–17 (6–10). The "official" record therefore stands as 0–17.
