Ole Miss basketball coach Kennedy settles lawsuit
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
08/17/2010 -
Jackson, MS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ole Miss men's basketball head coach Andy
Kennedy has agreed to settle a lawsuit stemming from a December 2008 run-in
with a cab driver in Cincinnati.
The Clarion-Ledger on Tuesday reported that Kennedy will pay an unspecified
amount of money to drop a defamation lawsuit against Mohammed Jiddou and valet
Michael Strother, if the two men in turn apologize to Kennedy and drop any
potential countersuits.
The amount of the settlement will be confidential, according to the paper.
Kennedy was arrested when Ole Miss was in Cincinnati to play Louisville
in the SEC-Big East Challenge. In the police report, Kennedy, who was
arrested in the early morning hours, was alleged to have punched Jiddou
while shouting racial slurs.
Witnesses to the events of that night have reported Kennedy may have been
intoxicated, then was told to leave a bar called The Lodge in downtown
Cincinnati before the incident occurred.
Kennedy, who was accused of verbal and physical abuse, eventually pleaded
guilty to a reduced charge of disorderly conduct.
