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.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
