Message: [QUOTE="amory, post: 2758909, member: 2935"] I didn't say he was the symbol of oppression. I even explicitly said UConn is doing the right thing here. But Ollie is one of us. He didn't turn out to be the right guy to lead the program long term, but he's a UConn guy. He's been an ambassador for our brand for decades. He was fired because he was not winning basketball games. Not for a few minor violations. This is undeniable. And when a coach is fired for not being successful, generally they get the money contractually due to them. I'm glad he's not our coach anymore, but I'm not going to applaud the school for weasling out of paying him based on technicalities. [/QUOTE]
