Overview
- Reports from Jeff Goodman and CBS Sports indicate Wofford delivered written notice to fire Perry, with a dismissal expected within about two weeks.
- Dwight Perry led the Terriers to a Southern Conference Tournament title and an NCAA Tournament berth in March and is 36-31 over two seasons.
- The move lands less than two months before the 2025-26 season opener, creating a late coaching shake-up for the program.
- Perry took over in 2022-23 after Jay McAuley resigned during an investigation that later brought Wofford a year of NCAA probation and McAuley a two-year show-cause.
- Perry plans to fight the action to try to keep his job, and the development arrives during a week of other unexpected coaching changes that included Billy Lange leaving Saint Joseph’s for the Knicks.
