Template:1995–96 Big Sky men's basketball standings The 1995–96 Idaho Vandals men's basketball team represented the University of Idaho during the 1995–96 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Members of the Big Sky Conference, the Vandals were led by third-year head coach Joe Cravens and played their home games on campus at the Kibbie Dome in Moscow, Idaho.

The Vandals were 11–15 overall in the regular season and 5–9 in conference play, sixth in the league standings.[1]

At the conference tournament in Bozeman, Montana, the Vandals defeated third-seed Montana in the opening round,[2][3] but lost by 25 points in the semifinals to top-seed and host Montana State,[4][5] the eventual champion.

Idaho incurred consecutive losing seasons for the first time in a decade, when they had three straight cellar finishes under Bill Trumbo. A few days later, Cravens was fired by athletic director Pete Liske,[6] and was succeeded by former head coach Kermit Davis.[7][8]
