Lois DeFleur, SUNY Binghamton’s president, has fired her athletic director, ordered an external audit of the sports program, and ordered disgraced basketball coach Kevin Broadus to draw up a “recruitment and supervision plan for the program’s future.”
UD thinks Binghamton will also try to get rid of Broadus, despite the fact that – just before the shit hit the fan – they renewed his contract to 2010. Getting rid of him will therefore be very messy and very expensive, since Broadus will certainly sue if they don’t give him all the money they’ve promised.
Of course, at any given time five or ten university coaches are suing their employers over contractual matters, so this won’t be any novelty. It’ll just be ugly and expensive for the taxpayers of New York.
