Jan. 22, 2003: The Iowa State men's basketball team loses, 64-59, to the Tigers in Columbia. In his postgame news conference, Eustachy had described himself as "as disappointed as I've been in a long time" and criticized his players, saying: "This is the real world. Our guys have to get tougher."
Jan. 23, 2003: The next day, a photo of Eustachy standing among six college-age students, appears on Missouri internet fan boards.
Jan. 24, 2003: Former Iowa State athletic director Bruce Van De Velde confirms the authenticity of the photo, but said it was no big deal. "He was just pausing to have his picture taken with some fans who saw him out for dinner," Van De Velde says. "Larry is the kind of coach that if you ask him for an autograph or take a picture, he will do that. He is that kind of coach, which is a good thing," he says.
Early March 2003: Then-Missouri student Sean Devereaux calls the Des Moines Register to say he has photos of Eustachy kissing women at the party in his apartment.
Mid-March 2003: Devereaux mails the negatives to the Des Moines Register because he decides Eustachy's behavior was inappropriate and people in Iowa should know of his actions. The Register does not pay for the photos.
April 18, 2003: Van De Velde, in an interview, says his original statement about the coach's behavior on the night in question was based on information he received from Eustachy. He says the school won't reveal if disciplinary action is being discussed.
April 24, 2003: Eustachy releases a statement to the Register acknowledging, "In the past, I have made some poor decisions that I regret."
April 30, 2003: Van De Velde says Eustachy has been suspended with pay and that Van De Velde has recommended Eustachy be fired.
May 5, 2003: Eustachy agrees to resign in return for a cash settlement on his contract that was originally set to continue until 2011.
