Colorado State University officials recommended the firing of men's basketball coach Larry Eustachy during the 2013-14 season after an investigation uncovered systemic verbal abuse of players.
Files obtained by Matt L. Stephens and Kelly Lyell of the Coloradoan show Eustachy, who arrived at Colorado State in 2012, intimidated and insulted players while also having inappropriate temperamental outbursts. University officials interviewed 14 people associated with the Colorado State basketball team, including players and staff members, who painted a harrowing picture of a program that nearly led to Eustachy's dismissal.
