Bobby Gonzalez forced out as Seton Hall men’s basketball Coach Read more

Seton Hall basketball coach Bobby Gonzalez has been fired.Patrick Hobbs, the university law school dean who has been overseeing the athletics department since July, said Wednesday that Gonzalez was let go for reasons other than his coaching record.

“Performance and success are not measured solely by wins and losses, but also in the conduct of those associated with the program,” Hobbs said.

“We have expectations as to how our coaches and players will conduct themselves, and they are expected to treat everyone they interact with, whether officials, the press or our students, with the utmost respect, maturity and professionalism. Those core expectations must be met.”

University president Monsignor Robert Sheeran informed Gonzalez of the decision around noon, saying he had lost confidence in Gonzalez’s ability to lead the program.
