Q Did he ever discuss with you any specific problems or issues associated with the

5 lives of these African-American student athletes there?

A I can't recall anything specific. We did have conversations at practice about players finding a place to live. We have apartments near us. He was always trying to help them get places to live. If there was anything about a class that they could not get into or needed to get into, then he would come to me and ask for my help.

Q Let me ask you something about the team. You said there are typically 15 players on

16 the team? A Yes. Q In the year October '06 through '07, how

many of the 15 were African-Americans? A Nine, ten. Q Has that been the percentage since? A Yes. Q If you know, what's -- strike that.

Does the University keep numbers with respect to

A Yes. Q Do you know what the minority population

4 is? 5 A I do not. 6 Q Who would know that? 7 A I am not sure. 8 Q Would one of the persons in this room 9 would know that?

A Probably. Q So, through 2006/2007 John Hurley

continued as the coach and Anthony Robertson was 13 the assistant coach. Then we come to 2007 and 14 2008. Are any decisions made about who will coach

the team that year? A In June of 2007, John Hurley was

released as the director of student life by Peggy Chauker, who at the time was our assistant dean of student services. He was still retained as the

20 head basketball coach. 21 Q Was there any decision made about who'd 22 be assistant coach?

A Not at that time. Anthony still had a year of classes and stayed.

coach at the beginning. As we got to know each other, we had never used our assistant coaching money. That job remained open as far as the University was concerned because Anthony was a volunteer, not getting paid for basketball just work-study money that he clocked in and clocked out with.

Q How much assistant coaching money was 10 there? 11 A $2,300.00.

Q Is there a particular reason Anthony did not receive that money?

14 A You cannot be a student and an 15 employee. Anthony understood and he chose --

obviously he wanted to finish his degree. Q So there was $2,300.00 in the budget for

18 an assistant coach? 19 A Approximately.

Q When Jason came in 2007, there is still $2,300.00 in the bank, so to speak?

a paid employee? A As the weeks went on that year. But as

the weeks went on, I had spoken to Jason and I 8 felt we had the money and we should use it. We 9 hadn't had an official assistant coach. As we

looked into it more, the process for him to apply and the background check and everything, it would have been past the year and it would not have

13 worked out. So that's when we came to the 14 conclusion we could hire him as a temp through BGI 15 Services. 16 Q What is BGI Services?

A That is a temp service we use at University of Cincinnati.

19 Q You do not have to go through this background check; is that it?

A Do not have to go through the application process or paper. We just hired him on temporary -- to get through that year knowing we were going to open it up at the end of the year

He was very driven, really saw the person. It was not just a team or number to him, it was the person. Obviously his coaching qualities, he knows the game of basketball. And he and John Hurley got along very well.

Q Did you, in the course of 2007/2008 basketball season, make any statements to Jason about what the future held in that position?

it would open up. It would be a process. Q Let me show you Plaintiff's Exhibit 1.

6th. In that area. Q Why June? What was going on then? A We had opened up the position after the

basketball season. That was early March. By that time, we felt we had three qualified candidates to interview.

Q Had you had any conversation with Jason about his eligibility for the position?

A Yes. Q Were you aware that he was interested? A Yes. Q Had you made any representation where he

stood or where things might go? A I encouraged him to go through the

process and at that time we had several discussions with John Hurley that -- not knowing who the other candidates were, everything being

are you referring to? A Well, you have to look at

qualifications. Q Was there a specific qualification or

types of background that you're looking for in 11 connection with assistant coach? 12 A Someone with college-age experience.

Again, at the college level, a plus would have been a previous coaching position or playing at different level, that being college level or

16 professional level. Internally, my personal feeling is I look at A: basketball which is select good quality coaching and recruiting, knowing people in the area.

Q Were these qualifications prioritized? In other words, did you say you were looking for a specific person for specific qualification or experience was preferred?

11 that is about? 12 A The previous year when we were talking

about him applying for the job, before we realized from a time standpoint we need to go through a temp service, he went online at the time since the' position was still open and applied. When he went on in early May he could not reapply for the same position at that time.

19 Q What had to be done for him to be 20 considered? 21 A We needed — Nancy Raveal had to go in

and open that position back so he could get back in -- you can't apply for the same position twice. The website will not let you.

interview for a position that I have. Is this a typical thing every year? Do I have to do this again if I get the position?"

Q Does Mr. Hurley have to apply each year? A No, he does not. Q Why is that? A Once you are hired, you do not have to

apply anymore. And Jason will not have to apply this year. Jason was not on -- he had not done a background check. He was through the temp service.

Q The reason he had to apply was to get the background search done?

It is my understanding that is policy since the position is open, you have to do the search. We have had to do it for other sports.

8 Q Were you looking for anything other than 9 the background for Jason or does he automatically

have to be thrown into the mix with everyone else? Do you follow me?

A He had to — that is why I sent this e-mail the day it came out to apply for the position. As part of the process, we have to do it.

Q Now, let's go back to Mr. Hurley1s 17 affidavit which is Exhibit 2. Now, we have got to 18 the point were we know the search committee has

three persons: you, Kim Ellison and the coach. He goes on to say, "We interviewed several candidates for the position, including Jason who was assistant coach in the previous year." Did you

took and ran with it at that point. Q The thing that you -- let me be clear.

What were the specific items that you thought were problems specific to athletes on campus?

A Getting athletes into particular classes that they needed in the season in order to travel and not miss class time. Getting them into a learning center, structured learning center, seeing an advisor in timely fashion, which we have

12 all since worked on. 13 Q You indicated a moment ago that Jason

said he tried to get reaction or response or assistance for African-American student athletes, but it had not happened. Did he relate to you what efforts he made or who he had spoken to?

A Not specifically, no. Q Now let's go to the second sentence on

the paragraph three of Mr. Hurley: "Mr. Moberly told me he spoke to the UC equal opportunity office"? Did you have any knowledge of that?

23 A Not until George Wharton called me. Q Do you know when that was?

Page 4£ 1 A I can't be sure. 2 Q What did Mr. Wharton say to you? 3 A He wanted to know -- two different 4 instances. One, I believe the incident he called 5 me about was not the first incident, it was the 6 second one that the basketball team was practicing 7 one day in the student activity center and my 8 student worker, which is a white female, there was

a cell phone missing -- and picked up a phone or picked up a bag which she felt the phone may have

11 been there on the bleachers. And Jason came to me 12 saying he felt that we were accusing the

African-American of stealing the phone during the practice and had actually gone to me and told me

15 about it. I believe he had -- I do not know if 16 Jason did, but the individual involved spoke to 17 Ann about it and Kim about it. And we called the 18 student in and I talked to the student and his

answer was he did not feel that way but Jason wanted him to make that complaint to get it out there to keep this -- so he could help them — so Jason could help them.

Q Let me parse that out. There was a situation involving a missing cell phone?

A Just by reading this, I do not know if this was the actual situation, but a lot of times there is advising going on in the coaching ranks to students. And a lot of times they are told wrong or inaccurate information.

All we had was applications, to follow up on any kind of -- anything else he had to offer. At that time he said he had played basketball for the Boston Celtics, played overseas, which gives him a lot of credibility at that point.

His question to me — the brief conversation on the phone — was just that "What did Kim say the reasoning was?" or "Why Jason may not want the job

7 anyways?" Q So, did you respond to Mr. Wharton? A Yes. Q What did you say?

11 A I told him what Kim said. 12 Q What did Kim say? 13 A After John calmed down that Jason didn!t

get the job and felt he had been stabbed in the back, the head coach not being able to hire his assistant. He said, "Well, I hope you guys know you have a lawsuit coming out of this." At one point, Kim!s response was "Why would Jason even want to work here if he is that upset about everything that is going on?"

Q Is there anything else you want to clarify?

A That was in -- probably my conversation with George Wharton probably happened in early

I am looking at paragraph 4, Mr. Hurley states, "Following the completion of interview process for assistant coach and before it was offered to anyone, I participated in a conference call with Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Ellison."

to inform us that Mr. Moberly was not going to be hired." Did Ms. Ellison, in the course of that phone conference, the purpose was telling you Moberly was not going to be hired?

A Yes. Q And that Hurley asked for the reason for

her decision. Do you remember him doing that? "Why is that Kim?" or words to that effect?

A Yes. Q "Then Kim told him over the phone that

Moberly would not be hired because, in effect, he complained to the officials on the main campus regarding institutional racism at UC Clermont affecting African-American athletes." Is that

19 what she said? 20 A No. 21 Q What did she say? 22 A She said that when John said how upset 23 he was about it and there was going to be a 24 lawsuit — "You have a lawsuit coming" is how he

3 going on?" Q You have agreed — let me back up. You

have agreed that Kim Ellison said that she was not going to hire -- Moberly would not be hired and John asked her why. What was her response to that

8 question? Why was it, according to Ms. Ellison, 9 that Moberly would not be hired?

A She had gone back and found more 11 information about Keith Starks and his experiences 12 and with it being an under-utilized position and

everything being equal, Keith Starks is the one to be hired.

Q This was a change, was it not, from what had been decided among the three of you following the Hurley evaluation conference?

A Yes. Q That was on June 9th, I believe?

20 A Thereabouts. 21 Q As of June 9th Moberly was the preferred 22 candidate?

A Yes. Q And he was going to be recommended?

10 that. 11 A Okay. 12 Q My question is: Is the first time that 13 you heard that Kim Ellison wanted to hire Keith 14 Starks on the morning of June 23rd? 15 A Yes. 16 Q She told you because she had more 17 information about him? 18 A Correct. 19 Q And the information she had gotten about 20 Keith Starks was that he had coached overseas? 21 A Played. 22 Q And when you got of bed on morning of 23 June 23rd , before you went to the meeting and had 24 your firs t cup of coffee or whatever you do, was

take, that was still your understanding? A Yes. Q Did she tell you why — did she suggest

you and she place a call to John Hurley and say she decided to go a different way?

A Yes. Q Did you place a call to John Hurley? A After we placed a call to Keith Starks,

yes. Q Even before asking Hurley if he wanted

Page 7 0 1 A Yes. 2 Q What did she say? 3 A Based on what she had learned and the 4 fact it was an under-utilized position and we all 5 agreed at the first interview that there was not 6 much difference between Keith, Jason or the other 7 candidate — but the other candidate was out of 8 the picture at this point so it only left two

candidates — with everything being equal, this is the way they felt they had to go.

Q It was an under-utilized position, and would you agree on June 9th, when the three of you

13 discussed the three candidates, two of them were 14 African-American and the decision to select 15 Caucasian, it was still under-utilized position, 16 correct?

A Correct. Q At that point, that it was

under-utilized position was not mitigating in favor of Mr. Starks or Mr. Levett, correct?

A Correct. Q So, what tipped the balance is what you

23 are telling me — strike that. What tipped the balance in your view in favor of Starks?

Q So, just so I am clear, I will ask again, I do not know if I received an answer. If I did, I apologize if it!s in the record. According to Hurley, he asked Kim the reason for her decision to go with Starks, and she said Moberly would not be hired because he complained. As you recall, what is it that Ellison said to Hurley on the phone in that conference call in response to Hurley's question why?

A Something to the effect, John said, "You know there's a lawsuit coming"; and Kim said, "John, why would Jason want to be here if he is

so unhappy?" or something to that effect. Q Did you understand from that — did you

come away with that response that Kim no longer wanted to hire Moberly because he was unhappy?

10 Q Then she said? 11 A Then he said, "You will have a lawsuit 12 coming out of this"; and she responded something 13 to the effect, "If he is that unhappy, why is this 14 — big of a blow" or what "If he is unhappy, why 15 would he want to be here?" 16 Q Any further conversation? 17 A Not that I recall. 18 Q Did you have any conversation — what 19 you are saying, Mr. Hurley's statement isn't 20 correct? 21 A Yes.

He goes on five lines from the bottom of 3 paragraph 4 of affidavit, "She" — meaning Ellison 4 — "stated she had obtained additional 5 information about another candidate for the 6 position which reflected he played professional 7 basketball overseas and said this is additional 8 reason of selection of another candidate." You 9 heard Ellison say that; is that correct?

10 A Yes. 11 Q That part is correct? 12 A Yes. 13 Q Then it goes on to say, "I, in turn, 14 explained my belief that overseas play had no 15 apparent relevance to the assistant coaching 16 position." 17 A Yes. 18 Q Did you hear Hurley say that? 19 A Yes. 20 Q So the only part that you disagree is 21 him attributing Kim Ellison saying that Moberly 22 would not be hired because he complained to 23 officials on UC campus, correct? 24 A Correct.

1. I am the current head coach of the University of Cincinnati Clermont

College Men's Basketball team. I have held this position since 2003.

2. During the summer prior to the 2008-2009 academic year, UC Clermont

began a search to fill the position of Assistant Men's Basketball Coach at the College.

The search committee included Athletic Director Brian Sullivan, Director of Student Life

Kim Ellison and me. We interviewed several candidates for the position including Jason

Moberly, the individual who had served as assistant coach during the previous year. We

all believed Mr. Moberly was the most qualified person for the job.

3. Shortly after his interview Mr. Moberly notified me that he had contacted

Karen Faaborg, Vice Provost for Academic Personnel at UCs main campus, regarding

his concern about "institutionalized racism" at UC Clermont. Mr. Moberly later told me

Page 104: 5/19/09 deposition given by Brian Sullivan (Moberly v. UC Clermont et al)

that he had spoken to George Wharton, Director of UC*s Equal Opportunity Office,

about the same issue.

4. Following the completion of the interview process for the assistant

coaching position, but before it was offered to anyone, I participated in a conference call

with Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Ellison. Ms. Ellison indicated that the purpose of the phone

call was inform us that Mr. Moberly was not going to be hired. I asked the reason for

her decision and she told me that Mr. Moberly would not be hired because, in effect, he

had complained to officials on the main campus regarding institutional racism at UC

Clermont affecting African American athletes. She further stated that she had obtained

additional information about another candidate for the position which reflected that he

had played professional basketball overseas' and explained that this was an additional

reason supporting the selection of another candidate. I in turn explained my belief that

overseas play had no apparent relevance to the assistant coaching position.

You were paid through a temp service last year so in the eyes of the university there was no assistant coach. I have to wait until there are three applicants which I have now and will get through this quickly.

Brian,

Can you forward th is on to Kim, I don't have her emaii address.

As a coach at Ciermont my main concern is for the students. I tried to help the students get everything they need in order to be successful at the college level not only on the basketball floor but in the classroom. I have always put academics in front of athletics and will continue t o do so. I understand the "chain of command". As of now, I will fol low the chain of command when it comes to basketball and helping the kids get enrolled at the college. These student athletes are more important to me than anything else. As a coach, success is built by what your players have accomplished in the classroom and by what they do after graduation. I see my job as an Assistant basketball coach t o help these students become successful. The only way for them to be successful is if they can get the help they need to get into college and that's what I though I was doing. All I wanted to do was help these student athletes. I will continue to discuss things with Coach Hurley but from now on, I wil l include that in every email that I send. However, I did not discuss this email with him. I was wrong when I thought that because Brian was the athletic director that anything regarding student athletes would go through him. I thought I was doing my job by helping kids who come to me for help. As I stated before, I will continue to follow the chain of command but I will include Coach Hurley's name if I have to email. the Athletic Director for any future assistance in making sure these kids have a successful transition into college and athletics.

To Whom It May Concern:

I suspect you'll find very few candidates with a background such as mine—and it's one I'd like to put to work on your behalf.

As you'll see on the enclosed resume, the depth of my experience in the sports industry will shine through. As a college & professional basketball player and most recently a high school & AAU Coach, my dedication to coaching and commitment to the players is the reason for my success.

Moreover, having worked in various Sports Management roles in a variety of different environments I have a diverse background and can easily adapt to any situation. I have the background to manage players, their grades, the ability to multi-task and handle conflict resolution. It is a long term passion of mine to be in a position to do what I absolutely love/helping other people and being around sporting events of alt levels. It is this passion that allows me to offer you a true partner as you Assistant Basketball Coach.

A personal interview would allow me to demonstrate my talents. 1 look forward to hearing from you so that we can schedule a meeting.

Sincerely,'
