HARTFORD, Conn. _ The Connecticut state Freedom of Information Commission on Wednesday ordered UConn to hand over to Kevin Ollie thousands of pages of records that the former men's basketball coach first requested last year.
Ollie initially asked for the documents in the wake of his firing and UConn's refusal to pay the $10 million left on the coach's contract. UConn contested that request, and the sides have debated the issue over a period of months in front of the FOI Commission. An FOI hearing officer recommended in January that UConn be required to give Ollie the documents, and the commission accepted that recommendation Wednesday, with only slight amendments.
UConn has already announced its intention to appeal the decision to Superior Court.
