Message: [QUOTE="SubbaBub, post: 3243357, member: 523"] Not quite, but generally correct. They couldn't have made up a cause just to avoid paying. They could have made a fair good faith assessment of the allegations and the evidence and determined that the NCAA penalties would be upheld and severe enough to let him go under the terms of his contract. This is exactly what UConn will try to show. Ollie's team will look for discovery on any prior communications that they wanted to get rid of him for other reasons. The judge will have to decide if those two sets of rationales are independent or if one was pressed to support the other. Ollie still has a long way to go and depending on the record, UConn may choose to settle. That they have taken it this far, indicates they feel pretty good about their case. [/QUOTE]
