Report: FSU assistant coach Charlton “CY” Young hired by Missouri

TALLAHASSEE — Per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, Florida State assistant head coach Charlton “C.Y.” Young will be headed to Missouri. Rothstein reported the news first via Twitter Thursday night:

Young has been with FSU since 2013 and has spent nine seasons as a Seminole. Young and Gates worked together previously as assistants at Florida State from 2013-19 under head coach Leonard Hamilton.

He was a key identifier of talent for the Seminoles, recruiting four players who would not just help establish FSU as a consistent ACC contender but end up being NBA draft picks: Scottie Barnes (1st Round 4th overall, 2021, Toronto Raptors), Patrick Williams (1st round, 4th overall, 2020, Chicago Bulls), Devin Vassell (1st round, 11th overall, 2020, San Antonio Spurs) and Malik Beasley (1st round, 19th overall, 2016, Denver Nuggets).
