If there was ever a program that needed to be built with methodical steps and a patient eye, it was the Auburn Baseball program. In October of 2015, the program resembled something left by Sherman’s Army as it marched out of Atlanta. Tattered, torn, left burning after Sonny Galloway was fired for cause just before fall practice of that year. In the previous 10 years, the program had seen 3 different coaches that each had a successful season before fizzling out. Enter Butch Thompson. Fans of the sport in Auburn rejoiced. I remember texting a buddy of mine who loves Auburn baseball like I do, and he said what I felt.
