You can feel however you want about GM, but he is in a better position now than KO, fact.
Kevin would never work as a D3 assisstent for a "Friend". He is in a great position in his life- his NBA pension is over 190000 K per yr with full health benefits. This will mature in a few yrs. KO can get several NBA jobs if he so desires but there is no need for now.

. He also volunteered the "rumor" of KO paying a recruits mother 30K. THAT I had a huge problem with.
Agree that this is the big issue with his testimony. Not sure if it was a parting shot at KO or if he was too unsophisticated to avoid that answer.

Interesting. I am glad his discharge did not cause him any significant financial harm.

Only on the Boneyard would someone rather be Glenn Miller than Kevin Ollie from a financial standpoint.

Uh, one person is jobless likes to spend a lot of money and is divorced. The other has a job and is still married. Remind me again who you’d rather be?

"From a financial standpoint". KO is likely worth at least $3M (and I'm being very conservative - it's proly 3x that) and if he wants to could likely have a 15+ year career as an NBA assistant and maybe get a chance as a head coach. He may have spent a lot of money but assuming he did it's relative to his earnings and you have no idea what he currently spends.

The NPV of his NBA pension is at least $20M (I have no idea how the players association runs the pension plan so again I'm being conservative).

And yes, he's not working now b/c he has multiple reasons not to.

GM is not unemployed you are correct good for him. But no matter employed or unemployed he's a rat. No other way around that don't care if it was injustice to KO but in total to UConn too. Rat period!

Yes, but ironically and perhaps unintentionally, he may very well have sealed Ollie's fate on the 10.7 million buyout, which may ultimately save the school all or most of that amount. He may have been motivated to hurt the school, but in reality he helped UCONN.

Probably some of both. Chief thinks it was at root a parting shot, but GM lacked the long game strategic thinking to understand how it reflects on him or his career.
GM’s homeys are bragging he has a D1 assistant’s job in pocket. If so, this will be an opportunity for Calhoun to upgrade his staff or hire the head coach(?) after getting GM back on his feet. As you know, Chief has always questioned what the end game is there?

The facts are that a big that worked with GM trusts him enough to go back to him but an internet poster thinks that Brimah doesn’t know what’s best for his career. Keep boneyarding. GM will get a coaching job before Ollie gets another gig. Oh wait... GM isn’t unemployed now.

To be fair, he did get the job through Jim Calhoun. Regardless of his motives, some may see him as a guy not to be trusted. If you have skeletons in your closet, you aren't going to seek an archaeologist.

Seriously. Does that even cover alimony?
Not Stephanie's.

Stephanie Ollie, 40, who filed for the divorce from her husband nine months ago, will receive $33,200 per month in alimony for seven years and $1,800 in child support. The couple has a 14-year-old-daughter and a 19-year-old son.

The agreement also provides that while Kevin Ollie will retain an undisclosed number of separate and joint financial accounts, Stephanie Ollie, a nurse, will receive $2.5 million in compensation to be paid in four installments over the next 18 months and $2,000 from Bank of America checking and savings account. She will also receive an additional $350,000 lump sum alimony/property distribution award to be paid over a 42-month period, the agreement states. In exchange for waiving claims to her husband's current assets or potential income, according to the agreement, she will also receive another $240,000 by May 15, 2019.

KO. He’s not perfect but he’s not a rat.
Uh what about smearing your HOF mentor and the guy who got you your coaching gig in the media? Maybe you want to rethink that whole "he's not a rat" thing. Just saying.

Except that, Ollie was employed to the tune of $2.8M / yr for almost 3 years after the settlement which means the $2M has likely been paid and there's another $2M to go roughly mostly in alimony. Alimony which will likely now be reduced to reflect current / future income.

The idea that's he's broke and spent all his money on oysters is unfounded.
