FIFY He was fired after the season had concluded. Check the dates. The OP discusses a separation agreement, which is very common when terminating a contract. There’s no evidence that there was any new deal brokered other than to confirm everything that the original contract stated would happen...

The one intangible that Litchfield team had was how well they played together. Their press was outstanding. When we played, it felt like when they were trying, we could only get past half court 50% of the time. The 3 sets of brothers probably played together all their lives and it showed...

Here's one last nugget. Coyle, at around the 20 second mark: "He's going to be the coach at New Mexico. We learned that earlier today" Coyle, when asked about the timeline of events at around the 1:50 mark: "We started to talk last Friday when we got back from Indianapolis... and yesterday...

If this were true, the article wouldn't have mentioned that he was fired. The article did say he was fired, therefore this part of your comment is wrong. I've provided, you know, actual legal documents detailing how the termination of employment actually works (doubt you read it, you don't seem...

I didn't dodge it. Coyle literally said in his statement "I recently met with Richard and told him that we were moving in a different direction." Through every objective measure, that language would be identified as being synonymous with being fired. In fact, pretty common knowledge to use...

We've been over this already. But, I get it. You're one of those "I'm never wrong #iamsosmart" types. Good on you, man.

OMG. You are so wrong it's sad, LOL! Go back to the article. Read the first sentence of the second paragraph. I'll also copy and paste it for you. Read that sentence. Then read it again. Then perhaps again. If it doesn't make sense, ask someone to help explain it.

He suited up for their basketball team too: https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/john-carlson-1.html

IIRC also he rode the bench on the ND basketball team too.

Yup, but they destroyed Tartan by 35 (who won state in 4A I believe) but never played Henry IIRC. That was the matchup everyone wanted since those teams were by far the best two in state that year.

Ha! We played them too. The Pattons were really good too. We got beat by like 25, but kept it close until the 4th. Their coach told us we played them as tough as anyone and got beat by 25! Yeah, they were an amazing team.

You're still wrong here. The provision in which Pitino would pay the U falls under what is literally called the "Coach's Right to Terminate" and states "In the event Coach terminates this Agreement during the Term of Employment, Coach shall pay the University a termination fee..." (emphasis...

Nice mental gymnastics there. Whatever makes you feel better. I don't doubt much of the exit was planned out between Coyle and Pitino after it was already decided that Pitino would be let go. However you want to spin it, Coyle approached Pitino to tell him he would no longer coach the Gophers...

Post #32: Post #46: So, which is it? It's true because the media mentioned it? Or it's not true because the media is looking for clicks? Or, is it maybe only true when it fits whatever narrative you've already convinced yourself of, but otherwise clickbait when it doesn't? You're going in...

Gophers fire Richard Pitino after eight seasons Minnesota Golden Gophers fire men's basketball coach Richard Pitino fired: Minnesota parts ways with coach But please continue, this is getting pretty funny.

He was fired. It's literally in the article: The separation agreement says the U doesn't have to pay any buyout for parting ways with Pitino Pitino didn't part ways with the U. The U parted ways with Pitino. The facts back that up as well given the U's release of them firing Pitino prior to...

I’m not sure logic is your strong suit (as you’re apt to call out a poster in another thread). The termination fee applies if the contract terminates because Pitino left for another coaching job. That didn’t happen. The contract terminated because he was fired. Why the strib decided to call...

Nope. He was fired. After being released (and, therefore no longer under contract), he took a different job. You’re wrong.

We're not "voluntarily forfeiting" anything. That payback is only meant if Pitino left for another job prior to the end of the contract. We fired Pitino. He then got another job. We didn't forfeit anything here (unless you're opining we shouldn't have fired Pitino - but if that's the case...

Definitely someone I can easily cheer for. Sounds like a great kid!
