University of Texas at San Antonio men's basketball coach Austin Claunch has been suspended ahead of the upcoming season after being arrested for driving while intoxicated. The 36-year-old coach, who was preparing to begin his third season with the Roadrunners, was found passed out in his vehicle moments before the arrest.
The incident occurred just before the start of the 2026-27 college basketball season. Claunch had led the program since 2024 and was entering his third year at the San Antonio university. The school announced the suspension Friday evening, though the duration was not immediately specified.
