Greg Sankey released a statement on Thursday afternoon just hours after Alabama baseball dismissed coach Brad Bohannon for his connection to an ongoing gambling investigation.

Bohannon was fired on Thursday after university officials learned he is implicated in the scandal. Multiple states have instructed sports books to stop accepting wagers on Alabama baseball games due to “suspicious” betting activity in the Tide’s 8-6 loss to LSU last month.

Sankey commended Alabama for taking “swift action” in dismissing Bohannon from his post. Here’s Sankey’s full statement:

“The University of Alabama has taken swift action after information about baseball sports wagering activity was questioned by industry regulators. Ensuring the integrity of athletic competition is our highest priority, and for that purpose the SEC monitors gambling activity through its relationship with US Integrity and has done so since 2018.”

“There must be zero tolerance for activity that puts into question the integrity of competition. We will remain in communication with the University throughout its ongoing review and will have no further comment at this time.”

According to multiple reports, no Alabama baseball players are believed to be involved in the investigation. So far, only Bohannon has been implicated.

Pitching coach Jason Jackson has been named Alabama’s interim head coach for the remainder of the campaign.
