Since it was settled and the settlement favors the plantiff, don't the taxpayers deserve the right to know what happened to their tax dollars or will this be another ." its not the taxpayer's business" deal. I'm sick of how a few run this state and get away by doing things to appease a few, its wrong!
Depends on who paid for it. If the Foundation paid for it, then no. If the University paid, then yes.
It doesn?t matter who paid for it....the lawsuit was against a state entity, therefore all records relating to said lawsuit and its settlements are open to FOIA
The foundation is part of OM... They made it that way when they paid for those burner phones.... IF they are the ones who paid the settlement then they make themselves part of OM AGAIN... IHL minutes of their meetings should be posted by November 1, 2017, as they have to approve the settlement.
The public deserves to see the lawsuit settlement of a public institution.
More than likely they were creative enough for the foundation to sign the settlement while the lawsuit vs public institutions was merely dropped.
I?m pretty sure that as a part of their affiliation agreement with OM and the IHL, all their records are public except certain donor records.Quote:

ncaa lawyer fees, paying off the Nutt lawsuit, this "FOUNDATION " must be totally minted. they gotta be just hemorrhaging money. I'm not buying it. between paying for whores, rent , loaner cars paying players, and god knows what else , there had to be loads of cash flowing through there. The state won't do it but every public dollar they got needsto be accounted for.Bjork and the rest of them dudes up there are snakes. Maybe the FBI could get involved. Who knows how many poor students didn't get their fairshake because of them fake ACT scores
