Solid hire...but your thread title is misleading. The article says they are probably going to offer him the job after interviewing him.

LSU must have knocked OU out of the Super regional this year.
ergo...OU coach sucks.
He isn't liked in Oklahoma. Unless you get one guy to carry you at the plate, you're gonna have a tough year.

Damn, y'all got serious about softball. Hired Clint Myers away from Arizona State. Freaking homerun.

He is really no better than Pawlowski. The Big 12 this year was garbage and he had two excellent pitchers (one may have been the most talented in the nation) yet they went 13-11 in the league before the postseason. Three of the four teams OU beat in the conference tournament were trash. The Sooners were then gifted the easiest regional a traveling two seed could hope to face (three opponents who were about the same as them, at best).
Golloway has a consistent track record, but he is old and leaving his familiar recruiting area. He is also not terribly likable personally. I doubt he can do much at Auburn and, most importantly, you have to wonder what his real motives are to leave OU.

Well if he can get AU to the postseason in 8 of the next 9 years...he will be liked well in Alabama.

Offered Myers 28k with health and dental.

Well no shite. The problem is that he likely can't.
FWIW, I don't think you'd see people making fun of your hire if yall went after Mark Calvi.

He won't. It's not a dig on Auburn, but this job is far tougher than OU. I'm just not impressed by him.

There are better options out there than Galloway. And ones you likely wouldn't have to pay as much.

If hired, will he be SEC's first Asian American baseball coach?

Excellent hire if true...
I've been sweating bullets over the Butch Thompson speculation to be honest with you. Now, the two SEC schools that he had pre-existing ties with have replaced head coaches -- so hopefully we hold him for a few more years...

Given Jay Jacobs was making the hire, this is an absolute grand slam.

Yeah, it must really, really suck to win 40-50 games every year.
I would hate that.

It would be AWESOME to have Bobo back in-conference!

Top Tidbits Every School Should Know
About Sunny “Bobo” Golloway
Sunny’s nickname is “Bobo” and that is what you should call him.
Every year at the coaches convention all of the coaches throw $5 into a hat and bet how many times Sunny will kiss the arse of Ron Polk. Sunny sucks up to them constantly. In the world of baseball an arse kisser is known as a “Bobo”, hence the nickname. Everyone in baseball calls him this and he hates it. Even Big 12 umpires refer to him this way.
Bobo is a known Pill Popper - He takes them to sleep and he takes them to “wake up”.
Bobo is not only an adulterer but a wife beater. His first marriage ended when he was cheating on his wife with his secretary, now his second wife. Hey yes he cheated on her, but at least he beat her too.
Bobo enjoys a weekly pedicure and manicure
Is this guy a girl or what!
Bobo’s front teeth are capped
Now this one needs no explanation. When you kiss Cochelle's arse that long to get a job something eventually has to be done.
Bobo has a shoe fetish
Chick! Bobo has over 100 pair of shoes and rotates them daily. Easy there Alice.
Now all of these are facts known by most people that know Bobo. One other fact: he hates to be ragged at games.
You see, Bobo never played ball, so he doesn’t get it. He can’t stand it; he gets so mad he almost starts crying in the dugout. (See TCU game last year) I am assuming all you Big 12 fans know exactly what to do with this information.
