I haven't read the contract (has anyone here?), but presumably they can fire him for cause or for any or no reason (in latter cases they owe the $). So unless there is something in Ollie or the union's contract*, I don't see why hiring someone else is forbidden. And of course there's the simple fact that the duties of the position mean someone needs to fill it - whether than is an assistant stepping in or a new coach under new contract or even a segway into that if old contract legally needs to be dissolved.

*I can't think of any situation where someone was fired and kept their position via an appeal? Maybe a reinstatement & vindication from a probationary period or suspension, but I cannot think of one instance of someone getting fired and reinstated by legal process.  There was a firing/replacement of president of Market Basket in MA and then workers and customers revolted/went on strike and he was ultimately reinstated more or less by popular demand although I think he did legally contest his ouster as well.
