Old Dominion coach Jeff Jones is retiring, the school announced Monday.
The school announced in January that Jones would be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to health concerns. He suffered a heart attack during the team's trip to Honolulu for the Diamond Head Classic and then began treatment for prostate cancer for the fourth time.
Jones, 63, has been at Old Dominion since 2013, and led the Monarchs to the NCAA Tournament in 2019 after winning both the Conference USA regular season and conference tournament championships.
He spent 13 seasons as American's head coach before heading to ODU. During his time with the Eagles, Jones attended two NCAA tournaments and won four Patriot League regular season titles.
Jones began his coaching career at Virginia, where he played collegiately from 1978 to 1982. He was an assistant for the Cavaliers for eight seasons after graduating and then replaced Terry Holland in 1990. He won an ACC regular season championship in 1995 and led Virginia to five NCAA Tournament appearances. The Cavaliers reached the Elite Eight in 1995 and won the NIT in 1992.
He ends his 32-year career as a head coach with a record of 560-418.
