2010-05-28	The_Goons	Big East	Nuisance	Crime Link	14	A Connecticut official tells the Associated Press that two assistant coaches have left the men's program a day before the school plans to hold a news conference to update an NCAA investigation of potential recruiting violations. School officials, including coach Jim Calhoun, were to attend Friday's on-campus event, along with attorney Rick Evrard, an outside counsel who advises UConn on NCAA-related matters. A school official said assistant coach Patrick Sellers and director of basketball operations Beau Archibald had both agreed to resign from the school in advance of the news conference. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to release the information. The Hartford Courant, citing unidentified sources, first reported the resignations Thursday. Messages seeking comment from the AP were left for Calhoun, Sellers and an NCAA official. The NCAA and the school have been investigating the program since shortly after a report by Yahoo! Sports in March 2009 that former team manager Josh Nochimson helped guide basketball recruit Nate Miles to Connecticut, giving him lodging, transportation, meals and representation. The Yahoo! report also alleged that UConn coaches exceeded limits on the number of phone calls that can be made to recruits.

Fais that he wants to finish his college education -- possibly as a Buckeye -- and has a long-term plan of running a fitness center for geriatric clients. And football would be OK, too, if the opportunity arises, Clarett said.

2008-08-18	IrvinSucks	ACC	Nuisance	Crime Link	7	Chapel Hill, N.C. – A University of North Carolina star tennis player charged with drunken driving in a wreck that hospitalized two fellow students will withdraw from school this semester, his attorney said Monday. Chris Kearney, 20, veered off the road in the 200 block of North Columbia Street early Sunday, and his sport utility vehicle hit a wall before striking two female UNC students walking on the sidewalk, police said. The two women were taken to the hospital and had serious but non-life-threatening injuries, officials said. There was no word on their conditions Monday. Kearney was charged with two counts of inflicting personal injury, felony hit-and-run causing personal injury and possessing a fake ID and one count each of driving while impaired and consuming alcohol under the age of 21. His blood-alcohol reading registered 0.18, more than twice the 0.08 per se limit for intoxication in North Carolina. His parents flew in from Irvine, Calif., to attend his first court appearance Monday morning and bail him out of jail. He has withdrawn from school and will return home to California with them, said his attorney, Amos Tyndall. "They're devastated. They're very sad, very concerned about the two girls who were hurt. Their thoughts and prayers are with those girls and they're wishing, obviously wishing, he had made better choices" Tyndall said. Kearney was the Atlantic Coast Conference 2007 Freshman Player of the Year. He ranks second on the team for singles and doubles victories and was ranked third nationally among doubles players last fall.

2008-02-25	Trailer_Trash	Independents	Nuisance	Crime Link	1	NEWARK, N.J. -- Jim Casciano resigned Wednesday as head basketball coach at New Jersey Institute of Technology, effective at the end of the season. NJIT is the only winless school in Division I this season. The Highlanders are 0-28. In a statement issued by the school, Casciano said he plans to explore other opportunities in athletics. His last game with the Highlanders will be Saturday, when they play at Utah Valley State. Casciano is in his seventh season at NJIT and has a record of 66-118. He is in his 22nd season overall as a coach. He had left the team for more than a month this season because of undisclosed personal health concerns, but returned to work on Dec. 27. Athletic director Lenny Kaplan said the school -- which recently made the jump from Division II -- would begin a national search for Casciano's replacement and hoped to have a new coach in place "as soon as possible." NJIT posted a 5-24 record in 2006-07, its first season in Division I. But it has lost 32 consecutive games, with its last win coming against Longwood on Feb. 19, 2007. "NJIT is fully committed to the continued growth of our young Division I athletics program," Kaplan said. "We will look for a head coach who will lead the basketball program to achieve the same progress that we have seen in our overall athletic program since we began competing at the Division I level in 2006-07."
