Virginia announced Thursday that head coach Tony Bennett is retiring after spending 15 years with the Cavaliers.
Bennett and Virginia will host a press conference Friday.
The 55-year-old took the helm in 2009. Bennett led Virginia to 10 March Madness appearances, including an NCAA championship in 2019. He's the program's all-time leader in wins.
Prior to his tenure in Charlottesville, Bennett spent three years with Washington State from 2006-09. He amassed a 433-169 coaching record over 18 seasons.
Bennett steps down less than three weeks before the Cavaliers open their season against Campbell.
