per the Cincinnati Enquirer:
Larry A. Davis, the former University of Cincinnati associate head basketball coach, was forced out of his job this September because he was accused of an assault on an airplane in 2017.
Davis, 62, of Fort Wright, faces a plea hearing Thursday on a federal misdemeanor assault charge at the federal courthouse in Charlotte, North Carolina. He's accused of assaulting another passenger on a plane from Milwaukee to Charlotte.
UC previously called Davis' departure a retirement. But in a statement Tuesday, UC athletic director Mike Bohn said that UC had "commenced the process for separation" before the resignation.
"We learned of allegations against former employee Larry Davis regarding an off-campus incident in September 2017 which did not involve any member of the campus community," the statement begins.
"We immediately took proactive measures and suspended him from his duties while we took additional steps to ascertain more information. We could not substantiate the allegations at that time," Bohn said in the statement. Davis was suspended with pay from Sept. 15 to Sept. 27 last year, an Enquirer review of Davis' personnel files shows.
