Colorado State coach Larry Eustachy said New Mexico assistant Terrence Rencher tried to instigate a fight with one of his players outside the Rams' arena following Saturday's Mountain West Conference game.
Eustachy told ESPN that Rencher was trash-talking with Colorado State players before and during the game, which New Mexico won 84-71.
Colorado State senior forward Emmanuel Omogbo, the player involved in the post-game confrontation with Rencher outside the arena, said Rencher directed derogatory, racially charged language at him during pregame warm-ups.
According to the Albuquerque Journal, the post-game confrontation took place as Rencher was standing by the New Mexico team bus and Eustachy and Omogbo were walking to their cars.
