IUPUI Fires Shann Hart... Finally...

((HT: IndyStar/Alesia, Evans, Gillers))

But Hart gets her full moneys from a contract that pays her through 2013 since she was fired "without cause."

Hart's program has long had allegations of abuse. 42 players and assistant coaches, including 29 scholarship players, who left Hart's program in a six year period.

From the Star:

Former players told The Star that Hart broke NCAA practice time and recruiting rules; ignored injuries; caused fear and humiliation; and inappropriately inquired about their private lives, including their sexual orientation.

After losses, the former players said, the punishment could be a grueling midnight practice or children's Happy Meals for the bus ride home. After a loss at Butler, they said, Hart ran roughshod over the players' personal lives, going on a postgame tirade of accusations involving alleged lesbian relationships among players.


Hart, naturally, denies all of this...

Until stories come from Indianapolis, here's a reinforcement of just how screwed up the IUPUI program has been in the last year... not just women's hoops...
Julie Loncich has the back story...
