The interesting thing is that per other forums (not sure of the source of the original report), the written reprimand was given on November 9th, before the season even started. So all season there must have been conflict both within the team and possibly between Brannen and Cunningham.

My guess is the big things that got Brannen are the failure to comply with rules despite written reprimand and the intimidation/attempted intimidation of players. Everything else is likely just little things that UC found that normally get ignored, but they figured they might as well throw it on there.

Cunningham just sounds like a prick. I’m really happy about the new hire and glad we are done with Brannen, but he absolutely got railroaded. I’d be pissed if I was him too.

From Paul Daugherty column:

Quote:
Brannen’s lawyer, Tom Mars, texted me Tuesday that the coach “paid $135 out of his own pocket for a player to see a mental health professional. No good deed goes unpunished.’’

Pretty sure that was Sorolla.

The most detail yet. Does not paint Brannen in a good light.
