Brad Bohannon was axed from Alabama’s baseball program on Might 4 for “amongst different issues, violating the requirements, duties, and tasks anticipated of College staff,” per a press release from Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne. Whereas how closely Bohannon was concerned within the sports activities betting that led to him getting the pink slip isn’t publicly recognized, and will by no means be, however his fast ouster does all of the speaking for each side. Perhaps Bohannon thought he might get away with it, or it wouldn’t be a fireable offense (probably the most idiotic possibility), or he was in search of a fast means out of teaching perpetually. Having no ethical compass or exterior reference level to assume this was a foul concept exhibits Bohannon isn’t match to run a Division-I athletic program. It’s truly twisted to assume this was happening for some time earlier than he was caught. What number of outcomes had been influenced by slimy techniques that someway didn’t derail the Southeastern Convention baseball season?
The particular person making the wagers that flagged questions was recognized as Bert Eugene Neff Jr., of Mooresville, Ind., by Sports activities Illustrated, the father or mother of a present College of Cincinnati baseball participant. His relation to Bohannon is unclear, apart from by way of the baseball world, as Bohannon by no means coached within the state of Ohio. Both means, congratulations on being an enormous dumbass, and pondering serving to somebody earn cash off your children by way of sports activities betting was a good suggestion.
