From what I hear it will double his salary.

 

Yep. Number I saw was just shy of $5M a year.

Will be interesting if UVA matches it to keep him, that school is LOADED. Other issue that will be fun to watch is that they (UVA) have a VERY strong faculty there, and paying a Coach $5 million could set off a fire-storm. Stay tuned...

Wonder what will happen to his recruiting class

 

Good question. With Cuonzo Martin signing on at Missouri, he has hired Michael Porter Sr. It is a bit sketchy, but many say that Jr. signed a NLI with Washington.

Porter did not sign a LOI from everything I saw last night.

Even if he did they'll let him out. Happens all of the time when there is a coaching change.

If Christi Mack hadn't been pregnant with their little boy last time it was open, Chris Mack would be in Berkeley...worth noting. I don't think he'd leave now (to be clear, for Cal), for several reasons, but I am 100% certain their AD will kick the tires (HARD) before exploring anyone else.

 

He wants out of X bad doesn't he?

No, absolutely not. Couldn't be further from the truth...although there have been times this year he hasn't had a whole lot of fun.

FYI.... "...Cohen said the players would be released from their letters of intent if they decided not to stay after meeting with the new coaching staff..."

Indiana is now open.

 

Very interesting to see what happens there.

[Wireman]

who wants to attempt to compile the entire list at this point? It's been crazy the last few days

[swamprat]

Interesting addition to Brian Gregory's contract at USF....
