Message: [QUOTE="jibsey, post: 3244058, member: 859"] KO is protected by his union contract which prevents his firing unless there are serious violations. ‘The Committee on Infractions said the violations mainly stemmed from improper pickup games at which student managers kept statistics for coaches, the use of a video coordinator as a coach, which resulted in more than the allowable number of coaches, and free training sessions provided to three players by a trainer who was friends with Ollie.” Even though these are violations are they extremely serious to justify his termination? The arbitrator has to decide whether they are or not and if they are not he will be due his money, not a portion of it. UCONN admits now it’s going to be a tougher case but they expect to prevail. The school needs to settle ( I said 7 million settlement) this and now. They could lose the 10 million and this ruling makes it more possible. [/QUOTE]
