Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4763168, member: 173"] "Eventually" is the key. Ollie had $11.1MM remaining on his contract, was fired for cause...and was awarded $11.1MM in arbitration. Then as an extra kick in the teeth, UConn paid out a $3.9MM discrimination settlement to avoid a lawsuit. That wasn't exactly a pretty process, and general as monetary stakes increase - battles grow uglier. I think unless MSU is willing and able to buy him out for north of $40MM, this will go down the same basic path as Ollie but much uglier and vitriolic. If Tucker accepts less than that, I would be very surprised. [/QUOTE]
