The 2019–20 Loyola Ramblers men's basketball team represented Loyola University Chicago during the 2019–20 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Ramblers, led by eighth-year head coach Porter Moser, played their home games at the Joseph J. Gentile Arena in Chicago, Illinois as members of the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). They finished the season 21–11, 13–5 in MVC play, to finish in second place. They lost in the quarterfinals of the MVC tournament to Valparaiso.
The Ramblers finished the 2018–19 season 20–14, 12–6 in MVC play, to earn a share of the MVC regular season championship. As the No. 1 seed in the MVC tournament, they beat Valparaiso before losing to Bradley in the semifinals.[1] As a regular season conference champion who did not win their tournament championship, the Ramblers received an automatic bid to the National Invitation Tournament as the No. 7 seed in the TCU bracket. There they lost in the first round to Creighton.[2]
Following the season, associate head coach Bryan Mullins was hired as the new head coach at alma mater Southern Illinois.[3]
