Former University of Cincinnati men's basketball coach John Brannen has changed course in his lawsuit against the university and its administration.
Brannen, who sued UC, UC President Neville G. Pinto and UC Director of Athletics John Cunningham in May following his firing in April, has dropped his lawsuit in federal court and refiled a suit in the Ohio Court of Claims.
A UC source told The Enquirer on Wednesday that Brannen dismissed the federal suit without reaching a settlement with the university.
