    Fair. But is it possible the university just learned of the allegations today?

    Why was he coaching last night if they knew any earlier?

    You made a flippant remark about if he admitted that it was just an extramarital affair it would be ok to keep the job . Do you really think that? That’s why I suggested you delete that post. Trying to look out for you . But … you be you !

    I disagree. I think allowing him to continue pending investigation creates a huge distraction for the team - which is unfair to the kids who have been busting their asses. Let Carlin take over on an interim basis while all of this stuff gets sorted out. The kids love Carlin.

    We need to rally and support the team at this very moment. The kids don't deserve this.

    From the article:

    According to Snoopreport, a publicly accessible Instagram activity tracking software, Golden unfollowed 118 accounts on the platform between Aug. 1 and Sept. 1. At least 20, if not more, of these accounts appear to have been young women without connection to the Florida basketball program, or any other organizations that Golden had previously affiliated with. The women separately confirmed that Golden had blocked them rather than unfollowed.

    The second woman said Golden told numerous women that they were “his drug” or “his good luck charm” before games.


    “He just had this manipulation tactic over everyone,” she said. “And he sent us all the same sh*t. It was copy-paste to every girl.”

    In bold statements suggest more than 2 but it does seem two (2) are leveling the heavy accusations.

    Yes. Consensual relationship. Ended poorly. Then . . .

    Without defending anyone, nor accusing anyone, something feels odd to me. Let's see where this goes.

    @gogators73 would be a good resource since he has recently litigated these type of claims.

    It is possible but Coach Golden has rights too and the University has investigative responsibilities.

    Man, I’m in shock and it’s a gut punch. Golden was a bright spot on SS’s resume. No way he survives now.

    It was definitely long before today, fwiw.

    Per the article:

    “Golden had been in contact with both women for over a year before unfollowing them after they were told UF began looking into his behavior this past August, they said”

    “The University of Florida received a formal Title IX complaint on Golden Sept. 27 alleging that he engaged in various conduct that potentially violated the UF Gender Equity Policy..
