Ohio State: Judge Orders Documents to be Released to Former Coach



Judge Orders Documents to be Released to Former Coach: The NCAA must release all documents on its investigation of the Ohio State basketball program to former head coach Jim O’Brien, according to a judge’s decision yesterday. The school fired O’Brien after he acknowledged giving a recruit $6,000 in 1999, which he contends was allowed because the recruit wasn’t eligible to play college ball. O’Brien is seeking the $3.5 million that was remaining on his contract at the time of his firing. The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial on Oct. 11. [7/14/05]
