It didn’t take Auburn Baseball coach Butch Thompson long to replace departed assistant Brad Bohannon. Just one week after Bohannon was named the new coach at Tuscaloosa, Thompson tapped old friend Karl Nonemaker to be his recruiting coordinator.
The two worked together at Auburn from 2005-2007 serving as Auburn assistants on Tom Slater’s staff. Nonemaker comes to Auburn from Old Dominion University where he was the recruiting coordinator and hitting coach for the past six years. The hire appears to be more about correcting the Tigers’ deficiency at the plate than hiring a friend or replacing a recruiting coordinator.
