Sampson's deal requires cooperation with NCAA investigation

INDIANAPOLIS -- Former Indiana coach Kelvin Sampson's separation agreement with the university will not be finalized until March 17.
Sampson signed the deal Friday, but university spokesman Larry MacIntyre said Monday the Hoosiers ex-coach has 21 days to revoke the deal that includes provisions which prevent Sampson from suing the university.
The agreement, which was obtained through a Freedom of Information request, also requires Sampson to continue cooperating with the NCAA investigation and bars him from interfering with any team activities.
"Sampson shall not interfere in any way with the activities of the men's basketball team and shall not discourage the current members from cooperating with the transition to a new head coach, from remaining active members of the team, and from playing to their full potential in all competition events," the agreement states.

Indiana increases campus security, cautions threats do not exist

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Indiana University has added extra officers at school President Michael McRobbie's office, Assembly Hall and other campus locations after the resignation of former men's basketball coach Kelvin Sampson.

There have been no specific threats against McRobbie or any school officials since Sampson accepted a $750,000 buyout on Friday, Indiana University police Capt. Jerry Minger said. Still, the department chose to increase security at several campus locations.

Those include Bryan Hall, where McRobbie and other administrators have offices, and Bryan House, which is the president's campus residence, although McRobbie does not live there.

Extra officers also were added at Assembly Hall and other locations that might draw crowds.

I do know that I would believe anything that Sampson told me:biggrin:. I cannot believe that Indiana had to give him $750,000 to buy him out. I guess they must have looked at what happened to Ohio State and O'Brien.
