What's behind the bitter fight between Kevin Ollie and UConn?

The once-blissful union between Connecticut and Kevin Ollie came to a bitter end after last season, and their divorce gets uglier by the day.

It will be months before an arbitrator will finalize the terms of the split, but neither side will emerge unscathed.

It wasn't supposed to end this way. In 2014, Ollie was an upstart head coach who steered Shabazz Napier and the Huskies to victories over Florida and Kentucky to capture the program's fourth national title in 16 seasons.
