Indiana State parts ways with WaltmanNCAA Basketball Betting Lines03/03/2007 - Terre Haute, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Indiana State has announced that it will not renew the contract of men's basketball coach Royce Waltman. The announcement comes one day after the Sycamores were eliminated from the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament with a 59-38 quarterfinal loss to Creighton. "As we enter a new chapter in Sycamore men's basketball history, I would like to thank coach Waltman, and his staff, for their leadership and commitment to building the quality young men which they have worked with while at Indiana State," said athletic director Ron Prettyman in a release Saturday morning. Waltman spent 10 years with the program, compiling a record of 134-164, including just a 13-18 mark this past season. Indiana State reached the NCAA Tournament in 2000 and 2001 under Waltman, but the Sycamores have failed to post a winning record since. The search for a new coach will begin immediately. "I am optimistic about the future of our program," Prettyman added. "I am confident that after a thorough and nationwide search, we will bring in new leadership to the program that will move us forward." Indiana State gained national notoriety during the 1978-79 season when Larry Bird led the school to a 33-1 record, with the lone loss coming in the national championship game against Michigan State and Magic Johnson.
