His litigation only costs $625, who was his attorney?  Freeway?

Seems like he should have won .. you hire someone to be the head coach .. then bust them down to donations hawker which basically forces him to resign?  And that's not a breach of contract?

Now we know how he lost.  His lawyer was Lionel Hutz.

Hmm.  Does not seems like he should have won if this is true (from the article linked): 

"It was pretty clear from the start that Ball State had the right to reassign him under his contract."

Seems like the entire question was whether they had a right to reassign him and the arbitrator agreed with the university's position.

Ok .. maybe his agent is to blame.  That seems like a pretty piss poor clause to agree to.  It basically meant that Ball State would never fire him.  If he decided to keep the development job, they'd have just reassigned him to worse jobs until he quit and they were off the hook.  Pretty soon, Groundskeeper Willie would have had an assistant puke mopper named Tim.

I don't know the specifics but BSU has done this with one or more coaches prior to Buckley. A friend of mine is a BSU alum and he predicted they would make Buckley a fundraiser if they fired him as head coach.

Must be a common clause in coaches' contracts, UC did a similar thing with Huggins.
