PER CURIAM.

Baylor University hired Tom Sonnichsen as its women's volleyball coach in 1989. At that time, Baylor did not have written contracts with Sonnichsen or most of its coaches. At a May 29, 1995 meeting, Baylor administrators informed its coaching staff, including Sonnichsen, that Baylor planned to provide written contracts to the coaches. The subsequent employment dispute between Baylor and Sonnichsen is the subject of this case.
