AP Source: CSU, Eustachy Agree to Deal

Sports

April 12th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

A person familiar with the hiring says Larry Eustachy is set to become Colorado State’s basketball coach. The person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because the deal is only agreed upon and not finalized.  The embattled coach takes over for Tim Miles, who left for Nebraska last month after leading the Rams to the NCAA tournament.

Eustachy is coming off a season in which he guided Southern Mississippi to its first NCAA tournament appearance since 1991.  It’s been a long road for Eustachy, who has rebuilt and restored his career in eight seasons at Southern Miss. Eustachy was a coach at Iowa State over a decade ago before his dramatic downfall. He resigned in 2003 shortly after photos of him partying with students surfaced.

A four-month long investigation in Harlan has resulted in one person being arrested on several drug-related charges. According to the Harlan Police Department, 18-year old Duy Quang Vo, of Harlan, was taken into custody Tuesday, on three counts of delivery of a controlled substance/marijuana. 

Vo will face enhanced penalties for those charges, since the acts allegedly occurred within 1000-feet of a school or recreational area. Vo was also charged with one count of distribution to a person under age 18, and one count of ongoing criminal conduct.

The teen was transported to the Shelby County Jail where he was being held on $100,000 bond.
