Or we can just cry about everything that happens.
That's better.

Now Gabe is saying it's $3 mil/yr not $3.5. Maybe some people can step back just a little from the edge of the cliff.

I could get behind 3 mil for 5 years, but 7 fricking years???

The years are pretty meaningless until we get the buyout figures.

I agree here. My guess is that the buyout on his end is high for 5 or so years and less so for us. That's why the salary (partly) is high.

If it's 3 mill I think that's a fair amount per year for him. If Illinois was inquiring that would sound about right.

I think this is a reflection on how deep the hole is as a basketball program and how the University is still viewed nationally in the wake of CS1950. And the attempt by the Michael Brown documentarian to reignite Ferguson doesn't help that belief.
Who'd want to walk into what's still perceived as a shite show unless you overpaid him?
EDIT: I'm also hearing from an insider friend that the Yolanda allegations have legs. So that would be another reason to have to overpay and go 7 years if more NCAA punishment is coming. FWIW.

I like him for his defense. So we hire an offensive minded mid major coach for a team who can't hit open shots and the coach will have to get his recruiting legs in short time. That doesn't seem ripe for success

That's the interesting thing about Martin. At MSU his teams were much better on the offensive side of the court. And played with some pace. He has really reversed course at Tennessee and California.

Had to beat out the Illini for him.
He's worth what the market dictates he is worth.

Illinois offered him what he was worth. We over paid because we're desperate. Has nothing do with the market.
Posted on 3/15/17 at 4:44 pm to TigerCruise
But if someone wants something and wants it bad enough and has to out pay someone...that's the market price. Literally the definition
Posted on 3/15/17 at 4:46 pm to Mizsioux
Assessed value is not necessarily market value.
Posted on 3/15/17 at 4:48 pm to Mizsioux
Market price is what something is worth to the market. Just because I have sentimental value on a car and I'm willing to pay 20k more than it's worth has nothing to do with market value, it has to do with what i value it as. The market value for Martin is not 3+ million a year, Mizzou had to overpay because we're a dumpster fire.
Posted on 3/15/17 at 4:49 pm to TigerCruise
That's partially true
But Sterk may know Crean is staying put and Marshall said no. Where else do you get a P5 experienced coach?

Illinois offered $3 million a year as well. Mizzou just offered an extra year.
Posted on 3/15/17 at 4:57 pm to Tiger97
I think it's a good hire. Relatively young for a head coach. Only has one losing season (His first) in 9 years as a head coach. I don't know a lot about the money issues. What I do know is that Mizzou has only got 27 wins in 3 seasons.
Mizzou Basketball can't even muster up 16 wins. Learn to crawl before you walk.
