With the large clinical trials, the bleeding problems have turned out to be relatively small, and certainly worth it for the patient,

We've signed the agreement, and I'm waiting for a final copy.

Let's not kid ourselves. The entrance into the Big East Conference was primarily the result of positive visibility and awareness of the nationally ranked basketball teams under Bob Huggins . . .

Certainly Coach Huggins is going to be looking to coach major college basketball. We're in the process of reviewing certain situations. That's all I can say at this time.

My client . . . is extremely upset and offended at the personal affronts contained in the letter directed not only at him but also at his players.

Most coaches' contracts have termination provisions, both with and without cause. In the 'without cause' situation, there's an amount the coach is entitled to under contract. That can be clear, or it can be interpreted in different manners -- and what's clear to us is not clear to (Cincinnati), and they say vice versa.

We've been discussing with them for the last six or eight weeks an extension of the contract.

It would not have been appropriate for that to continue.

We are working on the details of the agreement, which may or may not be finalized in the next 24 hours.

The University of Cincinnati and Bob Huggins reached a tentative mutual agreement in principle to mutually terminate his employment contract. ... It's not a resignation and it wasn't a termination without cause.

It's a mutual agreement to terminate. We haven't resigned. We're not resigning the job. We're not being terminated without cause. We've agreed to terminate,

Higher education is still quite an open market in this area. The roots of course-management systems in higher education are still very shallow.

I can confirm that we have been in discussions with the university concerning our request for the restoration of the four-year rollever, or an extension of the contract so that Bob can retire as the head coach as the head coach of the University of Cincinnati.

The Cheney gift has provided us an opportunity to achieve these goals.
