Message: [QUOTE="BlueMAB, post: 2772628, member: 920"] Ollie's lawyer has a legitimate argument that the school was inconsistent in their treatment of the coaches. However; UConn has a legitimate defense by arguing 1) due to NCAA sanctions, they had to change the way they responded to violations; 2) the NCAA sanctions stemmed from, and specifically applied to, the men's basketball program, 3) further violations by the men's program would lead to increasingly harsh punishments, and 4) these are the reasons the contract language in Ollie's contract is/was stronger than prior contracts; and a zero-tolerance policy was required. Ollie's only argument at that point is, "show us Hurley's contract". If it doesn't have the same/very similar language, then the school is inconsistent, and Ollie finally has a shot at actually winning something again. [/QUOTE]
