Is a storm swirling around EMU's head baseball coach Roger Coryell?

According to reports, Eastern Michigan University head baseball coach Roger Coryell, has violated his contract by using his university computer to send "a series of inappropriate messages" to a players mother.

Yikes, this does not end well at all YCD thinks.

EMU Athletic Director Derrick Gragg sent Coryell a disciplinary letter which outlined the transgressions and was obtained by the Ann Arbor News via a Freedom of Information Act request.

In Gragg's letter, he claims Coryell violated his contract by "violating the rights of a student-athlete" while also engaging in an act of misconduct". Both are fireable offenses. Coryell remains on unpaid leave from the University.

YCD, and big supporter of EMU baseball, will keep you updated.
