SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- Eddie Sutton is coming out of retirement to
replace Jessie Evans as San Francisco's basketball coach.

A West Coast Conference official familiar with the situation
says that Evans is stepping down and that the 71-year-old Sutton
would take over the Dons on an interim basis. The official spoke on
condition of anonymity because there was no formal announcement.

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.
