Beyond frickin' dumb ruling by people who shouldn't have a say in these matters. This is a hiring in a competitive sports marketplace who the state of CT already
acknowledges a special set of hiring rules for sports coaches. Uconn is currently paying Diaco $3.4 Mil not to coach the team, but these imbeciles are worried about the lowest paid member of both the FB or BB staffs...... while Randy took the job on the cheap( less than 1/3 of Diaco's buyout) and put a staff in place to turn this trainwreck around. Would these ethics clowns be happier if Cory worked as a volunteer and was paid through athletic donations that don't cost CT a dime ? You know..... those donations that Uconn won't be getting if this program doesn't start heading in the right direction soon..... Now Randy has every reason to walk away if he does do a good job......

" Corey is set to make $95,000 this fall coaching the tight ends.Taking a quick look at the USA Today database of assistant coaches salaries from 2016, that $95,000 salary would rank Corey right around the 800th out of the 963 coaches they have salary information on. Corey’s compensation, position, and experience would be right in line with other coaches in that pay range. "

Corey spent two seasons at Colorado, first as an intern, and then as a graduate assistant working with the defense. Corey was part of the program’s turn around, with the Buffs going 10-4 with an appearance in the Pac-12 title game. Before that, Corey also interned for two summers as a scouting intern in the NFL, first with the Patriots in 2013, and then with the Eagles in 2014.

I think we can all understand, and (at least in a sense) appreciate why the law was formed in the first place,
which was to prevent a person holding a state job from giving someone of their relation a job that they’re not qualified for, but this isn’t that. In this instance, to say that you can’t hire someone because he’s your own blood is, in my opinion, incredibly short-sighted, and is clearly not in the spirit of why the law was put into action in the first place.
