Seriously, though, this guy appears to have torched his career in one of the dumbest ways possible. He was earning in excess of $460k a year coaching baseball. Living the dream!

Really looking forward to learning the full story of what went down. He clearly had an accomplice who placed the bets in Ohio. I guess neither of them realized that algorithms flag this kind of activity. It's been written about quite a lot!

The thing is, the team still lost.

I'm sure he bet against his own team! Though what an odd game to throw—LSU was -245 to win, so he'd have to wager enormous money to justify the risk. I'm gonna guess he didn't totally think this one through (perhaps because he's in desperate circumstances?).
