Heard him on the radio just now. Good coach and funny guy. Don't recall the details but was he fired for off the court issues?

He forgot that he was in the 1990s when hitting women isn't acceptable (thank god).

Damn that's not what I was expecting at all. Thought it would be something like alcohol or affair

Per wiki:

quote:

Watts said that on that day, two days before Alabama was to play Stanford in the NCAA Tournament, Sanderson punched her in the face, giving her a black eye, during an argument. Sanderson said Watts had become hysterical and that, in an effort to defend himself, he stuck out his hand. She collided with it, giving her a black eye.

wasn't a very good coach either


Bama had tons of talent during that time while LSU, UGA and a couple others made Final Four runs Wimp couldn't get past the Sweet 16 majority of his career and never did make a Final Four

He never got past the sweet 16. not even when he had Horry, Sprewell,David Benoit, Keith Askins (all NBA players) on the floor. Or when he had Derrick McKey, Jim Farmer, Mark Gotfried and Terry Conner and was a #2 seed in the tournment.

As told to me by a friend of Sanderson's who was a teacher at State:

Wimp was having an affair with his secretary. Then his secretary found out he was cheating on her with someone else at the University. She confronted him after finding out and it got heated. Next thing ya know, Wimp had to slap a bitch.

It's always made me laugh thinking about how he was banging 3 women at the same time- Wimp is a playa

We beat Alabama 93-70 to advance to the Elite 8 in 91, but Wimp had some good teams and went to the Sweet 16 around 6 times.
