The Vandals were 14–10 overall and 4–6 in conference play.[2]

Head coach Dave MacMillan had departed for Minnesota in the summer,[3][4] and was succeeded by alumnus Fox, who had coached Pocatello High School to the state title in 1927; he returned to Moscow and led the Vandals for nine seasons.

This was the final season for varsity basketball at the Armory and Gymnasium as the Memorial Gymnasium opened in November 1928. The older building became the women's gym, and continues today as the Art and Architecture South.
