Black Tuesday continues….I just heard that Samford has fired head coach Jimmy Tillette. This makes four DI head coaches fired today. The decision to fire Tillette was made earlier today after he met with Samford AD Martin Newton. Tillette had spent the past 15 seasons at Samford, where he won 229 games and made two NCAA appearances. A national search will be conducted. More on this one when it becomes official.

**UPDATE**

Samford has just issued the official press release. Tillette has indeed been fired. Here’s the link: http://www.samfordsports.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/031312…
