Basically he's saying that CSG pissed off a lot of people and they caught him breaking the 4:1 rule (4 players allowed with 1 coach) and fired him for the NCAA violation. One poster said it was like catching Al Capone for Tax Evasion. They were just looking for a reason to fire CSG due to other issues he created in the program, mainly being an ass.

I think the list of problems is going to be lengthy if the truth comes out


It's going to get ugly

@KendallRogersD1: I just got off the phone with Sunny Golloway’s lawyer. Added: “Auburn is trying to get off cheap and not pay a penny on this deal.” #auburn

Rod Delmonico

Tanned, rested and ready.

there's a history of Tennessee coaches in different sports getting second chances in SEC.

Bruce Pearl at Auburn
Don Devoe at Florida

I think Rod would do quite well at Auburn and lord knows he's available.

Sunny Golloway fired over Running Illegal Bullpens | College Baseball Daily

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.

Word on the message boards is that the director of baseball ops was upset that Golloway wasn't going to pay him for a baseball camp he put together. This guy then films a bullpen session that is allegedly in violation of NCAA rules and hands the video over to the AD. When the AD asked CSG about the bullpen session he said it didn't happen, he was then shown the video and dismissed, the pitching coach is also in trouble over the incident.

If it did indeed happen this way, it's a pretty ugly incident all the way around, but as always TIFWIW.

I think their 2016 recruiting class was going to be good, we need to pilfer it...:)

statement from CSG's attorney, even throwing Bruce Pearl under the bus........

"For Coach Sunny Golloway to be fired by Auburn is outrageous. The allegations against him are pretextual. Coach Golloway has made no mistakes. If some, who want him gone, say mistakes were made, they are the mistakes of others, who have conspired to make him the victim. If it is necessary in the coming days to air these matters, folks from Jay Jacobs on down -- but not Sunny Golloway -- will be the ones wishing Auburn had handled this differently. As for President (Jay) Gogue, he does not know the facts. If he did, he would not have acquiesced in this decision.

"This is a program that hired a disgraced Bruce Pearl, yet now seeks to make a good man and a good coach, who is nothing but a winner, the fall guy.

"Sunny Golloway is not only a winner, he is a fighter. He has four years left on his contract. There are good arguments, which we are prepared to test in court, that he actually has a lifetime contract. If serious offers of severance are not soon forthcoming, we will be fighting this matter in some forum, quite visibly, as long as it takes to redeem Coach Golloway's good name and to provide just compensation for him and his family."

Hopefully they don't..........I think Serrano and Company will get it going. Yeah, it's taken longer than expected however what are realistic expectations in today's world and playing in the SEC???? Microwave expectations and reality are two different durations...........

Serrano will be the 1st to tell you that his original philosophy didn't work as intended so he's re-tweaking everything. Also, some bad vibes over the last couple of years which should be corrected now.

If anyone should go it should be Hart, he doesn't give a crap about non-revenue sports and his track record is suspect at best, IMHO.
