The 1974–75 Idaho Vandals men's basketball team represented the University of Idaho during the 1974–75 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Members of the Big Sky Conference, the Vandals were led by first-year head coach Jim Jarvis and played their home games on campus at the Memorial Gymnasium in Moscow, Idaho.[1] They were 10–16 overall and 4–10 in conference play.[2]

No Vandals were named to the all-conference team; senior guard Henry Harris was on the second team and junior guard Steve Weist was honorable mention.[3][4]

Hired in March 1974, Jarvis was previously the head coach for three years at Spokane Falls Community College,[5][6][7] and led the Vandal program for four seasons. He played at Oregon State under head coach Slats Gill and for several seasons as a professional.
