I'm a little late on posting this one. Apparently USF fired their top assistant coach before the season because he was engaged in sexually harrassing behavior toward the players. The head coach was already on thin ice for abusive comments he made to team members and his inability to keep the assistant in check, but then he let the fired assistant re-enter the facility, so he was canned too.

Well, in light of what happened to the UC Davis program it's nice to know that other programs are being brought to task for what they have been getting away with. The college sports world acted like they were so shocked at UCD's hazing, but everyone knows it goes on in many other programs-they just haven't been caught yet.

Have to wonder what is going on with that former USF assistant though. Sounds like from his USF bio he's 20+ years from playing competitively. Maybe he's going through a mid-life crisis and the way he's dealing with it is trying to re-live his college baseball days and bond with the players in the crazy inappropriate ways he and his teammates did back in the day. Or maybe there's a screw loose. I suppose we can be grateful for Matt Vaughn. Despite the fact he never really left UC Davis when he graduated he grew up and never pulled any crap like this...that we know about.
