Message: [QUOTE="BaZZnBOAT, post: 2757890, member: 7724"] I think one thing should be made clear. Regardless of how minor the violations may seem to a vast majority, they did happen. And, according to the contract signed by KO, those violations are a fireable offense. The university could theoretically have fired KO if his team was performing well or not. Would it have been likely given Ollie was perfoming to the UConn standard? No. But it was a possibility given the contract language. Regardless of how you feel about the use of a “just cause” dismissal, it’s valid based on the violations committed. Those are simply the facts. Regardless of how you feel is strictly an opinion. I think a case would be made that UConn would have worked with KO on the violations had the team succeeded. But there’s also an argument to be made that the losing and damage in the program’s perception was too much to bear any potential violations in the first place. [/QUOTE]
