I thought he was making like $4.1/year or so in Brooklyn? Isn't that what we were susposedly offering Marshall?

Yes but I didn't think we would offer anyone else close to that amount. Was just curious.

I hope we do. We can afford it. Plus if we offer him less than Marshall, can you imagine the media backlash?

I haven't read anything that mentions what we are paying him. I could see it at 3.5-4 mil. He's probably with a million in just the exposure our program will get over the off season.

It'll also be interesting to see if we end up in stone five star kids' radar, it if the blue. It's late in 15, but there's plenty of time for 16.

Don't see why we wouldn't? We were prepared to offer that to Marshall....a guy from some shitty mid-major conference who did a great job and getting into the playoffs vs. an NBA coach of the year who got into the finals. I realize Marshall was a more proven commodity at the college level, but CAJ has a pretty damn good resume as well.

I was hoping around 2 million and we used the rest on assistants.

Hopefully that means that Johnson will be announced before Thursday. Doubt he's making visits before being officially announced as coach.. Come on BB..

I figure they're waiting until after the championship game. I'm thinking Wednesday gives it time to be in the spotlight.
