Came here to post that. Wonder what Bobo did to get bounced in September?

Paging AB2...

Auburn Fires Sunny Golloway- D1 Baseball Staff

Tom Holliday has also been placed on indefinite administrative leave. Now I'm really curious what was going on.

Whoa. Its popcorn time now. I predict a loss of scholarships or some sort of lawsuit. Maybe both. In September? After a rare regional appearance? Something happened.

College Baseball Daily has learned that former Auburn Baseball coach Sunny Golloway was fired over having players throwing bullpen sessions with coaches during a time period coaches could not attend. This is an NCAA infraction and could lead to players being ruled ineligible. When Sunny was questioned about the bullpen sessions by Auburn Athletic Department staff, he denied they were going on. But he was caught in the lie as there was video and photo evidence of the bullpens with the coaching staff. This is the reason that current Associate Head Coach and Pitching Coach Tom Holliday has been placed on Administrative Leave also.

because of their histories, Golloway and Holliday are never going to get the benefit of the doubt. They have earned the mistrust.

True, but I am fine with this one. No need to overwork a pitcher in the offseason.

unfortunately the NCAA needs this rule, because some college coaches will never leave their pitchers alone and just let them rest. They will make these "throwing sessions" mandatory. And of course college baseball has a well-earned reputation for overusing pitchers -- the selfish coaches are more concerned about winning today than the pitcher's long-term future

"Jacobs did not clarify the nature of the violations that led Auburn to terminate Golloway's contract with cause but reports surfaced two years ago that the Auburn coach was under internal investigation regarding accusations surrounding conduct and player treatment."

This was brought up also from the Montgomery Advertiser

He has four years left on his contract, but really it's a lifetime contract? RIP Sunny, enjoy your last four years buddy.

Oh boy this will get bloody. But a school that would hire Pearl and fire bobo for cause must of had something.

Or the baseball team is the scapegoat to distract the NCAA from the rest of the AD

A lifetime contract for Bobo? What idiot composed that drivel?! No one is going to believe that. He's bleeding credibility out of every orifice of his body.

At OU, for example, he was at odds with players and coaches from past eras. There was friction. Distrust. Anger. And in the end, many of those alums refused to have anything to do with the program as long as Golloway was there. Some reacted with unbridled glee when he left OU for Auburn in 2013, including former All-American and current Atlanta Braves broadcaster Joe Simpson.

"I'm so thrilled that he's gone that they could hire a basset hound and it would be an improvement," he said.
