The dude probably sucked as a coach(his record was 41-158) but the school couldn't have handcuffed the guy anymore than they did.

How could they fire him after stripping his team of every scholarship player?

Sad what the administration has done to athletics. UNO was never a power, but made the post season pretty often in both baseball and basketball, now staying out of the basement is a successful year.

And unlike the basketball team they actually played legit D-1 teams in baseball while having the schollies to basically build a middle of the pack JUCO team.

Wonder if they'll look to former Privateer/current USA hitting coach Jerry Zulli.

Somethings fishy here. Im pretty sure he was offered a contract extension during the last year. He must have never signed it. My guess is that he and the new AD did not see eye to eye.
