One day after Penn State sued former defensive coordinator Bob Shoop for allegedly breaching his contract, Shoop filed a countersuit. According to a counterclaim filed in U.S. Middle District Court in Pennsylvania on Thursday, Shoop left the job due to “intolerable” working conditions.

The counterclaim did not specify what was intolerable.

As we reported Wednesday, Penn State sued Shoop for nearly $1 million dollars, claiming he breached his contract by accepting a defensive coordinator job at Tennessee in January 2016, more than two years before his three-year contract with Penn State would expire. Shoop’s contract stipulated that unless he was leaving his defensive coordinator position to take a head coaching job, an early departure would mean he had to pay back 50 percent of his base salary. His salary was $1.5 million a year. In its lawsuit, Penn State was seeking $891,856 in base salary, interest, and court fees.
