[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has been said earlier but Michael Lewis is a serious journalist (Moneyball, the Big Short). Has anyone actually read the book that the movie was based on? How could Lewis have missed these details (unless he was blinded by his friendship?)[/quote]

The book and the movie are very different. John Lee Hancock wrote the script and directed the movie. He was the one that took extreme liberties with the story and the Tuohys had final approval on Michael’s behalf as his conservators. [/quote]

The Tuohys become Oher’s legal guardian (ie conservator) in the movie. We don’t know if they ever approved any financial decisions on his behalf. It could be that the conservatorship was established to satisfy the NCAA but never had enforced by the Tuohys. [/quote]

The Tuohys have already admitted that they weren’t keeping with filing annual financial documents with the court as mandated as conservators. They’re in trouble and should settle. [/quote]
