2016 A10 Tournament winner

The 2015–16 Dayton Flyers men's basketball team represented the University of Dayton during the 2015–16 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Flyers, led by fifth year head coach Archie Miller, played their home games at the University of Dayton Arena and were members of the Atlantic 10 Conference. They finished the season 25–8, 14–4 in A-10 play to become regular season A-10 co-champions. They defeated Richmond in the quarterfinals of the A-10 Tournament to advance to the semifinals where they lost to Saint Joseph's. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, their third consecutive at-large bid, as a #7 seed in the Midwest Region where they lost to #10 seed Syracuse in the first round

The Flyers played most of the 2014–15 season with arguably the most limited roster in Division I men's basketball. Before the start of the season, one player was declared academically ineligible, one was lost for the season to a knee injury, and another ended his playing career on medical advice due to post-concussion symptoms. In December, two more players were dismissed from the team after having been charged with theft. This left the Flyers with only six players who began the season on scholarship; in addition, no player on the remaining roster, whether on scholarship or a walk-on, was taller than 6'6" (1.98 m).
