Men's Basketball Head Coach Kevin Broadus has been placed on paid leave of absence until further notice.

Assistant Coach Mark Macon will act as interim head coach.

Last month, Senior Emanuel "Tiki" Mayben was permanently dismissed from the team after being arrested for drug charges.

5 more players were kicked off for unknown reasons.

Then, Athletic Director Dr. Joel Thirer stepped down.

BU's Interim Athletic Director, Jim Norris, says he put Coach Broadus on leave after discussions with President Lois DeFleur.

Norris said, "There have been continuing incidents of concern related to the men's basketball program that do not measure up to the University's high standards. After discussions with President DeFleur and Vice President Van Voorst, earlier today I placed Coach Broadus on paid leave of absence from his head coaching duties until further notice. "

This afternoon a BU spokeswoman said the decision as to whether or not he remains the coach will be made after the school and SUNY ordered audit of the program is complete.

The team's late night madness to start the season is this Friday night.
