The Bobby Gonzalez situation at Seton Hall is just bizarre...but that's what you get when you hire a coach like Gonzalez...

Seton Hall beat Cincinnatti, Pittsburg, Louisville and Notre Dame, and, thanks in part to an otherwise soft Big East unbalanced schedule, finished its conference play at 9 and 9. That record doesn't ordinarily get you fired. It must have been something else.

Bobby Gonzalez goes out of his way to annoy anyone and everyone both on the court and off. Seton Hall knew what they were getting, as this is also how he ran his Manhattan program for seven years.

This approach (almost any approach) is fine if you're winning. If you're not, it contributes to you getting fired.

It had a lot to do with the gooning in their NIT game. One of Seton Hall's players hit a Texas Tech player in the groin, not once but twice, and was ejected. The Hall proceeded to get blown out, and Gonzo was fired the next day. Strange, but Seton Hall like a lot of BE schools are Catholic schools, and are run by priests. They tend to frown on thuggish behavior.

The punches to the groin and the loss were just the tip of the iceberg...
