    Tons of money at that place. Plenty of opportunities should they want to go dirty. Never been on campus but dated a girl who worked there. Brutal university, all about the money...for profit. Majerle was pissed when the Suns gave Hunter the reigns. Doing an excellent job here. Although, I recall cashing big bets when they played St. Johns and NM State. Kid spot on per usual.

    Former Grand Canyon University head basketball coach Dan Majerle is taking the university to court over his firing.

    He filed a complaint in Maricopa County Superior Court for a contract breach. Majerle claims he had total allegiance to the university, never entertained any other jobs and was fired in bad faith with school president Brian Mueller disparaging Majerle's reputation to at least one recruit.

    "Dan is seeking what is owed to him under his contract with GCU and pursuant to the law. He had hoped it wouldn’t go this way, but was left with no other choice. Dan is simply looking for what’s fair," said Dan Majerle’s attorney Dana Hooper in a statement.

    Majerle said he met regularly with Mueller and received only positive reviews. GCU hired "Thunder Dan" as its head coach in March 2013. At the time, Majerle had no experience coaching college ball. The school fired him back in March after seven seasons and a 136-89 record. He had three years left on his contract.Roughly five days later, GCU hired former Vanderbilt coach Bryce Drew as its next men’s basketball coach. In Majerle's lawsuit, he claims Mueller took at a shot at Majerle in hiring Drew, praising Drew's recruiting ability and how he embodies the Christian mission at GCU, the implication of that mission further disparaging Majerle. Majerle is asking to be paid through 2023 with all his court costs covered. There is no exact amount in the lawsuit.
