Olivar Quits Yale Football Post After Offer Refusal

New Haven January 23 AP Jordan Olivar head football coach at Yale since 1352 says he is quitting. He told reporters he submitted his resignation to Yale Athletic Director Kiputh Monday afternoon after Yale demanded full-time coaching and residence in New Haven through the academic year. The offer included a pay raise and a new three year contract but would force him to give up his California insurance business. Yale said no steps to name a successor have been taken and that Olivar left to further his West Coast insurance interests. Olivar, dean of Ivy league coaches, cited his recent promotion to associate manager of a Beverly Hills California insurance office as decisive. The university expressed regret at his departure and noted his long record of success with the Bulldogs.
