March 22, 20188 yr Is there any chance he stays at X? If he is willing to work for 1/3rd of what UL is willing to pay him. Would you pass on an additional $3M a year if you were Mack?
March 22, 20188 yr Is there any chance he stays at X? There's always a chance until he signs the contract. Nothing is a done deal until it's done.
March 22, 20188 yr If he is willing to work for 1/3rd of what UL is willing to pay him. Would you pass on an additional $3M a year if you were Mack? Heard that X is working up a deal that would double his salary so the difference would be $1.8M a year. Still not enough IMO.

March 22, 20188 yr X cannot compete with Louisville for his salary. Nice gesture, but... Agreed, all they can hope for is try to offer as much as possible and hope there are non financial reasons that would come into play.
March 22, 20188 yr Is there any chance he stays at X? I think the the biggest barrier would be the sanctions from the NCAA, but the big money plus a big contract plus it's Louisville makes up for that. So I guess there's a chance, but I see it as a very small one.
March 22, 20188 yr Agreed, all they can hope for is try to offer as much as possible and hope there are non financial reasons that would come into play. Only two things that would even make him hesitiate, IMO: 1. X is his alma mater 2. NCAA stuff Other than that, there is no comparison.
March 22, 20188 yr Only two things that would even make him hesitiate, IMO: 1. X is his alma mater 2. NCAA stuff Other than that, there is no comparison. Bingo.
March 22, 20188 yr Someone who has kept up more than me answer this please. Is it still possible UL gets a post season ban or loss of scholarships at any point? If not, I don't see anything that will keep him from coming.
March 22, 20188 yr I thought all along that he wouldn't leave Xavier, but I didn't realize that he'd basically be tripling his salary. I'd be mad at him if he turned it down and I am not a fan of either program.

I'd be mad at him if he turned it down and I am not a fan of either program. I've heard the base salary of $1.6M that has been thrown around is a bit lower than the real number. Either way UL is likely to offer a significant amount more.
March 22, 20188 yr Only two things that would even make him hesitiate, IMO: 1. X is his alma mater 2. NCAA stuff Other than that, there is no comparison. Those are the first two I was thinking about. I believe he also has younger children so moving them could come into play.
