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.
Auburn is finalizing a deal with Mississippi State pitching coach Butch Thompson to become its next head coach, D1Baseball has learned. The Tigers interviewed a host of worthy candidates, including Houston’s Todd Whitting, former Clemson coach Jack Leggett, Virginia pitching coach Karl Kuhn and Florida State assistant Mike Martin Jr. But in many ways, Thompson is a perfect fit for Auburn, and Auburn is a perfect fit for Thompson.
