DePaul head coach Purnell to return next season

DePaul athletic director Jean Lenti Ponsetto said men’s basketball coach Oliver Purnell will return for a fifth year in 2014-15, despite the team not having a winning record in any of the four seasons he has been with the team.

DePaul has not made the NCAA Tournament since 2004. They are 11-20 overall and 3-15 in the Big East this season.
