College basketball has changed since Jay Wright's national championship teams. Villanova needs to change as well.

The Kyle Neptune era at Villanova is over. The Wildcats have fired their head coach, the school announced Saturday. The move comes after they fell to UConn in the Big East tournament quarterfinals on Thursday, which all but ensured the team would miss the NCAA tournament for a third straight season.

Villanova fired Kyle Neptune after a three-year run where he succeeded Hall of Fame coach Jay Wright and failed to ever make the NCAA Tournament.
