can someone tell me what the Mark Gottfried "golf-course incident" is about?

I'm glad 'Bama is finally going to try to get a decent basketball coach. Gottfried was a good player back in the eighties, and showed promise as a coach a few years ago, but the program has been in a downward spiral for awhile.

I want to know what the hell Finebaum is talking about. That scummy talk-show host has been hemming and hawing about some sort of "incident" on a golf course, but he won't come out and say what it is. It's typical for the sorry SOB to spread rumors without putting facts on the table.

He seems to be implying that Gottfried was caught having sex with a dude on a golf course somewhere. Anybody know what the deal is?

I've got nothing against Gottfried, but Troy King seems like a real shithead.

2. First I heard of it. I haven't listened to my ESPN radio in a few months.

I did find this on a sports forum. Scroll through http://forums.tidesports.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3631098265/m/5671074438

5. so it was, allegedly, a woman then?

That's okay then.

:sarcasm:

I hope they just fired him for being a bad coach. :)

3. Not at the premier club in the area....

Can't speak for anywhere else.

6. I think Finebaum said the Jerry Pate golf course

I don't know where that is, but I haven't played golf since I was nine.
