Terre Haute, IN (Sports Network) - Indiana State men's basketball coach Kevin McKenna has resigned from his position Monday to take an assistant coaching position at Oregon. McKenna spent three seasons guiding the Sycamores, as his teams went 43-52, including a 17-15 mark last season that gave the team its first postseason appearance since 2001 with a trip to the College Basketball Invitational. He was named the 24th men's basketball coach in school history on March 29, 2007.
"I would like to announce that I am resigning my position as head men's basketball coach at Indiana State University, effective immediately," said McKenna. "I am grateful to (director of athletics) Ron Prettyman and the administration at ISU for giving me the opportunity to lead the Sycamore program the last three seasons."
At Oregon, McKenna will join new head coach Dana Altman. Two two worked together at Creighton where McKenna was an assistant to Altman for nine years before taking over at Indiana State.
