I don't understand the disconnect.

UConn may have very well, deep down in places places they don't talk about at parties (this is in all actuality exactly what boosters talk about at parties), wanted to fire Ollie over wins and losses and even if the money was quite the obstacle, they were prepared to do just that. However, Ollie gave them a reason and a substantiated legal argument to not buy him out.

Ethical? Moral? It's a gray area. Legally? Seems far more black and white.

Take the money out of it and think about your respective daily lives. A great deal of us probably toe (or cross) the legal line because the action is probably not a big deal according to to our own moral code. Doesn't mean there aren't real consequences.

If I hypothetically drive with my cruise set in the mid 70's, a policeman would be acting within his duties to pull me over, even though my experience indicates they generally look the other way up to a certain amount and I feel comfortably in the clear.

Now suppose the timing is toward the end of the month, they need to meet their quota, and my taillight is out. No way I'm not getting stopped.
