The University of Connecticut (UConn) has agreed with former basketball head coach Kevin Ollie for $3.9 million, with Ollie claiming reputational harm and attorneys fees. Ollie, a former UConn point guard, was fired by UConn in 2018 after two seasons in a row, the first time since the 1985-86 and 1986-87 seasons to do so. Despite this, Ollie won with a 127-79 record. Both the UConn men's and women's basketball teams won the national championship in 2014, the first school to do so. They undertook the same feat in 2004.
