  • Disability and Death Clauses in College Coaches' Contracts
    Disability and Death Clauses in College Coaches’ Contracts By Martin J. Greenberg I. INTRODUCTION There is little in the literature about two clauses that have an enormous impact on the economics of college coaches’ contracts. They are the death and disability clauses. If either were to occur, subject to the dictates of the contract, it could mean a termination of the contractual obligations of the university and an end to the coaches’ income stream. If the coach dies, the contract and the obligations of the university thereunder normally terminate. Disability on the other hand is more complicated. What is the definition of disability, who determines disability, and how long is one able to be disabled before the contract terminates? These issues are not only perplexing, but need to be expressly addressed in the coaches’ contracts. The case of Terry Hoeppner (“Hoeppner”) is illustrative of the issues. Hoeppner was hired on December 17, 2004 as the head football coach at Indiana University, after having coached at Miami University in Ohio for six seasons, compiling a 48–25 record and taking the team to two consecutive bowl games in 2003 and 2004. 1 Hoeppner was hired in 2004 to rebuild Indiana’s floundering football program.2 He immediately nicknamed the Hoosiers’ home field “The Rock” and then had a limestone boulder added to Memorial Stadium to reinforce the message. 3 In two years at Indiana, he was 9–14. 4 On December 27, 2005, Hoeppner underwent surgery to remove a tumor from his right temple. 5 On September 12, 2006, he announced he would undergo a second surgery the next day 1 Terry Hoeppner: Timeline , 13WTHR Indianapolis, http://www.wthr.com/story/6679762/terry-hoeppner-timeline (last visited Jan.

  • June 1, 2020 an OPEN LETTER from BIG TEN COMMISSIONER
    June 1, 2020 AN OPEN LETTER FROM BIG TEN COMMISSIONER KEVIN WARREN On Monday, May 25, 2020, George Floyd, a proud Black man, was killed by a member of law enforcement in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Philando Castile, Emmett Till. The list goes on and on. Prior to joining the Big Ten Conference as Commissioner and relocating to Chicago, my family had lived full-time in the Minneapolis area for over 15 years as I worked as an executive with the Minnesota Vikings in the National Football League. Our kids were raised in Minnesota and attended school in Minnesota before leaving for college and the people of the great state of Minnesota are part of the fabric of our entire family. As a Black man, I pray every day for the health and safety of my wife and children, especially during interactions with law enforcement. We continue to see inequality and deep divide regarding how members of the Black community are treated compared to the rest of society and too often, the results have been horrific and senseless. Such racism and inequality are pervasive, not just endemic in law enforcement. Meaningful change will only occur if, as a nation, we are united, resilient and determined to create difficult, uncomfortable dialogue and take significant tangible action. We all need to strive to make the world a better place. One person, one family, one city, one state, one conference, one country. George Floyd’s death cannot be in vain. I have made the decision to create the Big Ten Conference Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Coalition and invite student-athletes, coaches, athletic directors, chancellors, presidents and others to join me.
