Kathy McConnell-Miller is officially out as Colorado’s women’s basketball coach, the school announced Monday. Details of the split, which was reported by The Post last week, have not been finalized.
Colorado went 65-88 in five seasons under McConnell-Miller and posted only one winning record: 19-15 in 2007-08, when the Buffaloes reached the semifinals of the WNIT. Her best conference mark was 6-10 in 2006-07.
McConnell-Miller, 42, had a contract through the 2012-13 season, with an annual salary of about $360,000. The contract includes a clause that allows the athletic department to assign her to another position at a salary approaching $180,000.
In a release, CU athletic director Mike Bohn said the school will begin an immediate search for a successor, the first step of which will be assembling a search committee. He said he would not comment on the McConnell-Miller situation until everything was finalized.
