Message: [QUOTE="WallStreetHusky, post: 2875193, member: 822"] I agree that I don't think there are any negotiations. I think this is a case of Ollies lawyers trying to, again, influence this through the press. If you are the university, why the heck would you negotiate against yourself? Ollie has been exposed, he has nuthin'. Why would you negotiate with someone who has no cards? It takes two willing parties to negotiate. I would just keep smiling and tell them I will see them in front of the arbitrator. Other than a minor nuisance value to the case, I don't see him getting a sniff near $5m. He will be lucky to get $1m. This game is over, Ollie is just going through the motions. He has no other choice, his Hail Mary didn't even hit the backboard. This will get "settled" before it goes to the arbitrator. The school will pay a pittance, the settlement will be agreed to be confidential (subject to whatever union regs there are), to save Ollie the humiliation. [/QUOTE]
