to get him.

If that's $2.5 mil/year due to a bidding war, then so be it. It would be foolish to pass on a top coach for a mediocre one to save a million/year. In the long run, it would cost us MORE to hire a cheap coach because of the negative effect it would likely have on the program and thus attendance, merchandise sales, donations, etc.

                                        Pretty sure no one said that. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 18:30:19
                                             We were arguing a hypothetical scenario, obviously. (nm) - zounami MU - 1/26 18:31:46

                                                                      Interesting that you rate both Martin's so high. Both - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:37:26

                                                                                having NCAA teams most seasons is not good enough. - alwaysright MU - 1/27 07:20:25
                                                                      I respect - haeffb MU - 1/26 20:11:51
                                                                           Got to give him credit for actually putting something down. - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:32:31

                                                            That isn't a realistic scenario.(nm) - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 19:09:24
     Agree with this almost entirely. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 16:39:02
          Maybe, but some of us were pretty certain - alwaysright MU - 1/26 17:34:17
               And most of the arguments were BS. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 17:55:37
          we blew it on Bryce Drew, and another SEC program - FIJItiger MU - 1/26 16:46:30
               Too early to say that. Vandy is 9-11. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 16:58:30
                    We kept Kim another year. We blew it (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/26 16:59:16
                         Unless we get rid of KA and replace him with someone - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 17:00:14
                              This is a valid point that many don't get. I kind of think - alwaysright MU - 1/26 20:35:49
                                   Drew seems like a perfectly fine coach. - zodiac6 JC - 1/26 20:37:14
               Stan Heath is probably available. Been to the Elite 8 - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 16:52:42
                    Likely is available, since he isn't a good coach (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 1/26 16:58:45

                                   That's just not true. Quin and Steve are also strong - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 17:18:26
                    lol looked to see where he was, assistant at BC - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 1/26 16:53:43
                         He went to the Elite 8. The NCAA tourney is like Heaven and - Fred G. Sanford USA - 1/26 16:55:51

               Keatts resume compares favorably to Drew - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/26 16:51:00
                    Thing I like about Keattes - FIJItiger MU - 1/26 16:58:09
