Sources: Tulsa to fire Wilson after latest blowout

Tulsa is expected to fire football coach Kevin Wilson, sources told ESPN on Sunday, after he fell to 7-16 in his two seasons at the school following a 63-30 loss at USF on Saturday.

Wilson's team lost nine games by more than 30 points over two seasons.

Sources told ESPN that the decision came down to results and culture, as a new administration did not foresee an environment that could easily change.

Wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator Ryan Switzer has accepted the interim coaching role, sources said. Switzer was a two-time All-American at North Carolina and played three seasons in the NFL.

The Golden Hurricane (3-8, 1-6 American Athletic Conference) close the season Saturday against FAU.

Tulsa officials want a fresh start, sources said, with an expected significant uptick in commitment to football, which includes the funding to compete at a championship level in the AAC.

Wilson's firing marks the sixth job to open in the AAC (along with those at Charlotte, Rice, Temple, East Carolina and FAU). Tulsa, Charlotte and FAU fired their coaches before the finish of their second seasons, a sign that the expected length of coaching tenures in the Group of 5 is shortening.

Wilson also served as Indiana's head coach from 2011 to 2016, when he went 26-47 with two bowl appearances.
