† Conference tournament winner
Rankings from AP poll

With a new head coach and coming off their first losing season in 29 years, the bar for this group was quite low. However, thanks to a dominant 8-0 start, dominating wins over Miami and Saint Louis, and a home win against a ranked conference foe Illinois, they reached as high as #13 in the AP poll. They did suffer some lopsided losses but played exceptionally well at home; they were the only team in the Big Ten to have a perfect home record in the conference, where they finished 11-9 in a 3-way tie for fifth place. They earned an 8-seed in the NCAA tournament and beat West Virginia in the first round before falling to overall number 1 seed Alabama.

Previous season

The Terrapins finished the 2021–22 season 15–17, 7–13 in Big Ten play to finish in a three-way tie for 10th place. As the No. 10 seed in the Big Ten tournament, they lost to Michigan State in the second round.

On December 3, 2021, head coach Mark Turgeon and the school announced that the parties had mutually agreed that Turgeon would step down as head coach effective immediately.[1] Danny Manning, who had been hired as an assistant prior to the season, was named the interim head coach for the remainder of the season.[2] On March 21, 2022, the school named Seton Hall head coach Kevin Willard the team's new head coach.[3]
