Previous season

In a season limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Huskies finished the 2020–21 season 3–16, 2–12 in MAC play to finish in last place. They failed to qualify for the MAC tournament which had been limited to provide that the bottom four finishers would not be eligible.[1] The MAC also announced the removal of divisions in cost-cutting measure partly attributed to COVID-19.[1]

On January 3, 2021, it was announced that head coach Mark Montgomery had been relieved of his duties after the team's 1–7 start to the season. Associate head coach Lamar Chapman was named interim head coach for the remainder of the season.[2] On March 6, the school named Arizona State assistant Rashon Burno the new head coach.
