Jessie Evans was expected to resign Wednesday night as basketball coach at San Francisco which lost five of its last six games in addition to the NCAA suspension of one of its international players, The Associated Press has learned.

The coach had a meeting scheduled with Athletic Director Debra Gore-Mann earlier in the day. USF said a major announcement was planned for Wednesday night.

A West Coast Conference official familiar with the situation said Evans planned to announce he was stepping down at that time. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because there was no formal announcement.
