Wake Forest fired Danny Manning after six seasons as head coach.

"I am very thankful for having had the opportunity to lead the Wake Forest men's basketball program. I am very proud of the numerous student-athletes I had the pleasure of coaching, especially the student-athletes who earned their degrees. I am particularly thankful for all of the hard work my staff has put in through the years," said Manning in a statement.

Manning went 78-111 in his six seasons in the ACC, including going 30-80 in the conference.

The team never finished above .500 in the ACC under Manning.
