    I believe the key is that if fired without cause then Brannon is entitled to the full value of the remaining contract, that’s how it gets to the 5+ million dollar value.

    It will be interesting to see the amount the students' "athletic fee" will go up to feed Bear Brannen's purse!

    Then don't fire him? I mean now they just look incompetent AND they will still have to pay him.

    We don’t know they will have to pay him. It may be a technicality but the AD has 15 years in compliance. He isn’t stupid.

    From what I’ve read and been told....the school had promised Fickle 10 mill in capital improvements, which after COVID was dropped to 5 mill. However, the speculation is that 5 mill will now need to be diverted to pay Brannon. So they end up paying off Brannon AND pissing Fickle off at the same time!

    There are ALOT of threads on various UC boards and feeds that are not very complementary about Richie C. He might just pass Nancy Z as the most unpopular member of the UC administration in recent memory.

    This is probably up for debate. We will see soon.

    Isn't their money in the COVID Relief Bill to cover this?

    That might be the only thing that is more unpopular with people on UC boards than Nancy.
