McConnell-Miller appears to be out at CU

Looks like CU has had enough. The problem with this program was Ceal Berry started to let it go toward the end, and McConnell-Miller could never do much better. I always wondered why they hired her, she had a losing record at Tulsa, and happened to be a one-year wonder the year she was hired.

I don't know why they gave her an extension when she interviewed for a job at one of the California jobs.

This really surprises me. The Athletic Department never had enough money to buy-out Ricardo Patton. They just let his contract expire. They also supposedly don't have enough money to buy-out Dan Hawkins. But they buy-out the Women's Basketball coach?

I'm betting she has a LOT smaller buyout than he does.

I thought her contract has a clause or condition that they can re-assign her to another position within the athletic department instead of buying her out.

They probably bought her out for six basketballs and a set of pink shoes and five memo jerseys.

CU coach McConnell-Miller on way out - The Denver Post

Appears McConnell-Miller is threatening legal action to keep her job at CU. Not sure on what basis, but who knows.
