This guy is an embarrassment to himself! He's actually an assistant coach, but still.

At least the University of Louisiana-Monroe is going to do something. But anything short of firing this turd would fall short.

Based on the hyperbole. I was expecting to see him beating the player with a bat up or something.

That wouldn't be a firing, that would be an assault charge, at the very least.
Anyway, couldn't disagree with you more on this one.

The player had a bat? Then he was prepared to play the wrong sport and definitely got what he deserved
