Dan Majerle is suing Grand Canyon University after being fired by the school two months ago.
Majerle was fired by GCU on March 12, a week after the program’s final game of a 13-17 shortened season.
Arizona Sports reports that Majerle filed a lawsuit against the school. The suit alleges GCU breached its contract by not paying Majerle his severance.
Majerle was the program’s only coach since moving to Division-I and went 136-89 over seven years, including four straight 20-plus win seasons prior to the 2019-2020 season. The 54-year-old head coach was an assistant for the Phoenix Suns prior to his time at Grand Canyon and had a lengthy playing career with Phoenix.
Bryce Drew was named GCU’s new head coach mere days after Majerle was fired.
