Escape Clause in Petersen Contract

Could this come into play? If Pete smells trouble he might want out and have a way out of his UW contract.

One paragraph in the Memorandum of Understanding signed by new UW coach Chris Petersen and athletic director Scott Woodward on Dec. 6 reads:

“In connection with making this offer, the University represents to you that there is no pending or threatened investigation by the NCAA or Pac-12 Conference of major violations alleged to have arisen out of the conduct of its Football Program, nor does it have knowledge or reasonable belief of conduct involving the Football Program that violation such legislation. We acknowledge that your acceptance of this offer is in reliance on this representation.”

That would seem to confirm the account of Mike Davis, who told The Seattle Times on Wednesday night that he had reported the alleged violations to the NCAA late last week. Davis was a Lynnwood High track and field coach who assisted recruit Andrew Basham.
