Vermont fires men's hockey coach Woodcroft over 'inappropriate' text messages MORE:
Woodcroft was fired Tuesday following an internal investigation by the university's Office of Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity, athletic director Jeff Schulman said in a statement.
“We vehemently disagree with the process and the findings of a proceeding that lacked fundamental fairness and due process,” Andrew Miltenberg said in an email. “We strongly believe the University’s decision was contrary to the facts and the law. We intend to pursue justice for Mr. Woodcroft, who has been an outstanding coach and community advocate for over two decades.”
Woodcroft was not placed on leave at that time but was told not to have any contact with students involved in the investigation and to work from home, he said.
