After a stating last week that UConn football assistant coach Corey Edsall’s hiring violated the nepotism clause in the state ethics code, the Citizens Ethics Advisory Board confirmed the ruling with an 8-1 vote, as reported by Mike Anthony of the Hartford Courant.
The ruling states Corey will need to vacate his position after this year and no further action will be brought against UConn or Randy Edsall in this case. Anthony reports that UConn has 45 days to make an appeal to the state Supreme Court, an option which it will most likely pursue.
