When Marcel Yates was hired to be the Arizona Wildcats’ new defensive coordinator after the 2015 season, his pay increased from what he made at Boise State, but apparently not enough.

After suing the Yates family, $775,000 was awarded to two separate investment firms last month. However, Arizona’s defensive coordinator claims he does not have enough money to pay this off.
This is the explanation in the report:
