The recently fired coach of the University of Tennessee basketball team, Donnie Tyndall, has decided to bid goodbye to his Knoxville home, too, reports Realtor.com.

The site notes, citing Property Scope, that the Knoxville home that was built in 2008 was purchased by the former University of Southern Mississippi coach last year, for $1.7M---just a little over his annual contract rate of about $1.6M under Tennessee Volunteers. He is now selling the home for almost $1.9M.

Realtor.com described Tyndall's property as a waterfront estate that features five-bedrooms, six fireplaces, arched doorways, and an open floor plan creating a spacious dining area.The luxury property boasts a swimming pool with flowing water coming "from decorative urns," and a covered terrace with stunning views of the famous fishing and birdwatching spot, Fort Loudon lake, Realtor.com adds.

Why he was let go

In April 2014, Tyndall was hired by Tennessee to replace Cuonzo Martin, just mere hours after Michael White rejected UT's offer and decided to stay with the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, according to ESPN.

White is considered one of the rising young basketball mentors in the industry, with a 74-31 win-loss record under his coaching leadership in the previous three seasons with the Bulldogs, reports ESPN in another article. Thus, White was the first choice of an impressed Tennessee Vols athletic director, Dave Hart, to fill in for Martin who left for California.

Tyndall, who was supposed to have a deal with Tennesse for six years at $1.6 million per year, has good credentials, too, according to CBSSports.com. For example, the coach worked as an assistant at Middle Tennessee, and had also "won just as many games (56) the past two seasons at Southern Miss as White has won in the past two seasons at Louisiana Tech."

Sadly,Tyndall's time at UT was welcomed by a series of unfortunate events. In November, Bleacher Report published an article that a Southern Miss baketball program was under NCAA investigation for potential rules violations under Tyndall. According to the sports site's source, the investigation centered on "how tuition, living expenses and other fees were paid for 'Prop 48' recruits who signed with the Golden Eagles but were academically ineligible out of high school or junior college."

In March 2015, Tyndall was fired by UT as first reported by Jimmy Hyams of WNML The Sports Animal.

Part of the UT statement issued by Tennessee director of athletics Dave Hart, said, "It is disappointing that we have to take this action. It is highly likely that coach Tyndall will face significant penalties at the conclusion of the NCAA's infractions process. We believe that this decision is in the best interests of the University of Tennessee."

Tyndall also failed to lead the Vols to a better win-loss record during his stay, with only 16-16 under his name, down from Martin's mentorship which produced 24 wins, AL.com notes.
