Knoxville, TN (Sports Network) - Tennessee men's head baseball coach Todd Raleigh was relieved of his duties on Monday.

"We feel our baseball program, unfortunately, has not made the progress on the field that it should have over the last four years," said Tennessee director of athletics Mike Hamilton. "We believe a change in leadership is necessary in order to move the program forward. We appreciate Todd's efforts and wish him the best in all future endeavors."

Raleigh, who had one year left on his contract, will be paid $331,657.53 which also includes broadcast, shoe and apparel compensation.

Over the last four seasons, the Volunteers went 42-78 in the SEC and 108-113 overall under Raleigh's guidance.

The school said a national search for a replacement will begin immediately.
