SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Eddie Sutton is coming out of retirement to
replace Jessie Evans as San Francisco's basketball coach. The
legendary Sutton needs two wins to reach 800 career victories.
San Francisco announced that Evans was taking "a leave of
absence" for the rest of the season and that the 71-year-old
Sutton would take over the Dons on an interim basis.
Sutton's return was first reported by CBSSports.com.
Sutton retired as Oklahoma State's coach after the 2005-06
season. He has 798 victories in 36 seasons as a Division I coach at
Creighton, Arkansas, Kentucky and Oklahoma State.
USF is 4-and-8 this year under Evans, who's in his fourth season
at USF.
