Early Thursday afternoon, more details emerged surrounding the dismissal of former Salisbury University head men’s basketball coach Andrew Sachs. Sachs went on an indefinite leave of absence on Oct. 2.


On Oct. 25, SU Athletics announced that Sachs and SU officials came to an agreement on his official departure from the program.


Sachs and his representatives released a statement on the matters that led to the recent events over the past month through Delmarvanow.com sports reporter Richard Pollitt.


Here is each part of the statement in its entirety within the following three photos:





SU Athletics has continued to reserve comment on all matters concerning Sachs.


In the statement, Sachs references multiple high-level officials within Salisbury University.
