Previous season

The Cyclones finished 17–14, 5–11 in Big 12 play to finish 9th the regular season conference standings.[2] They lost to Kansas in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament. They received an at-large bid to the NIT tournament where they defeated Wichita State and lost to Iowa.[3]

On April 28, 2003, The Des Moines Register published pictures of head coach Larry Eustachy kissing several young women and holding a beer at a party near the University of Missouri's campus just hours after the Tigers defeated the Cyclones on January 22.[4] The Register also reported that Eustachy had been seen at a fraternity party at Kansas State hours after his team lost to the Wildcats.[5][6][7][8] During the scandal, the Register reported that Iowa State documents showed that the NCAA cited Eustachy for rules violations related to paying players.[9]

On April 30, 2003, athletic director Bruce Van De Velde suspended Eustachy with pay and recommended that he be fired for violating a morals clause in his contract.[10] Eustachy held a press conference in which he apologized for his behavior and admitted he had recently begun rehab treatment for alcoholism.[11][12] Eustachy initially indicated he would contest the suspension. Instead, on May 5, he announced his resignation.[13][14]

In the wake of the scandal assistant coach Wayne Morgan was promoted to replace Eustachy as head coach.[15]
