Message: [QUOTE="Yorkeez4, post: 2759074, member: 4434"] I’m having a tough time understanding much of what I have been readjbg on the Boneyard sbout thus. I think it is very obvious something happened after winning the championship. Whether it was KO deciding to coast after getting the extension or the fallout from his divorce, or something else - something happened. I do not have any evidence that UConn offered a buyout but I find it hard to believe they didn’t - I think it is more likely KO thought he could hold out for a better deal. I believe generally speaking that the NCAA encourages self-reporting and UConn has self-reported in the past. KO’s letter today was typical of someone leaving an organization and would not have been appropriate until the Herbst ruling. Anyone who thinks this will hurt UConn more then KO is delusional. If KO had just left, someone would have offered him a job - now not likely. Those that think the AD made a huge mistake giving KO an extension should look at the way the college coaching market works. He won a championship which means more $$$$. And extensions are a norm because it looks to recruits that the coach will be there for the duration. [/QUOTE]
