Why was Auburn's former ball coach, Galloway(?), disliked so much?

Just listened to Joel & Matt Stevens implied he was kind of a jackass. What's the rest of the story?

That's most of it from what I understand. I heard a few stories about his interactions with people not under his supervision like groundskeepers and trainers that were not positive. A couple of the big baseball fans I know (not big donors, just big fans) never liked him from day 1. He apparently just rubbed a lot of people the wrong way in a very short time. His firing was a little controversial in the timing of it but moreso because some people truly believe the athletic department set him up to violate NCAA rules, collected the evidence of it, then used it to fire him.
