Then we agree on that. I've always thought you a thoughtful poster, and passionate, yes, but thoughtful.

All I know is that Bobby G. doesn't become a bean counter and cheap out.
This is no place for the university to skimp just because enrollment is down.
As unfounded as it should be, I would be elated if Chris Mullin became our new coach, with Coach C. around to see his "step-son" take the reigns. Even if he failed here, it would be worth the risk.
That being said, to me the most solid, sure to be here, never lost anywhere he coached guy, is Tim Cluess.
With both, either guy would know what it's like to be a St., John's man.

The game threads will be interesting after each tech he gets
do you really seeing this program sticking with this hot head for half-a-decade or more?
If he wins, sure. I'm interested in two things: clean shop and winning. The method by which those two objectives are accomplished is really not something I'm worried about. Tom Izzo is a madman and I doubt MSU administrators/fans care much; Tony Bennett is much more laid back and I doubt UVA administrators/fans care much. There are plenty of different styles. I care about the end results.

As of last week, Danny was at 700K plus incentives, Bobby was at 300K but it was rewritten. Mass is likely at 400-600.
With Mullin it wouldn't be about money

As I speculated this morning, knowing some of the people on committee, it was about value for the investment. I don't think anyone was ready to cut ties with LAvin if the price and deal was right. McGoogles report makes sense that they wanted to reduce his salary and buyout, which is what I said this morning. He just didn't show that he was a $2.5 million coach because he isn't, and his high priced staff didn't yield results. I think LAvin misreads what his value is. He will have a hard time getting $2million per from anyone and if they give it to him they are nuts. Likely next stop is the broadcast booth.

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha.
Think we should go with Bobby instead of Jan Brady.
Interesting. Would be thrilled with either. But actually prefer Danny because he was the Jan Brady of players in the family; think he's that much more invested in being the Marsha of college coaches in the fam.

I don't want to be anybody's stepping stone. Not that his success is guaranteed, but if he did come (doubtful) and had great success (not guaranteed), he'd be gone in a flash to a big conference with bigger bucks.
