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.
