Keith Jenkins of the Enquirer reported and showed the masses the letter that was sent to John Brannen when he was fired. Justin Williams first dropped the report that raised the antennas of #BearcatNation last month. Most of the new report was stuff we all knew about, but actually seeing the letter in the flesh and the improper benefit situation put another cloud on a situation that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon for the Men’s Basketball program. The positive is they already have a new head coach, the negative is until all the legal stuff is handled this situation still looms.
Brannen’s lawyer responded today on Twitter about the allegations.

#BearcatNation how do you feel about this current situation? In all honesty the more I hear about Brannen, the more it shows John Cunningham made the right decision for the program moving forward.
Props to Keith and Justin for their reporting.
