The one thing that has been demonstrated as an inescapable fact through the coaching search to this point is that you have no earthly idea what you're talking about in any facet of a college basketball.

Yeah. The 6-year $4M+ idea that was floated I thought would be enticing.

$3M+ ain't gonna get it done.


That is what I thought right off the bat.. and it is interesting to see the dollar value in print from a newspaper vs innuendo on a message board

Bill Battle leaving Wichita. He doesn't look too happy. Perhaps he knows he wasted time?

So if the salary figure is actually around 3M, does that mean Texas would be in play again?

This story makes the "blow him away with $$ so Texas won't match Bama " a non-issue now..

I am not sure who I would want in the Smart vs Marshal debate, but I think both could do real well at Texas.

I would imagine but who knows. The only fact I do know is they were paying Barnes up to $3 million if he had made his bonuses. I think about $2.55 million base. So they've certainly been willing to pay that much but I recall reading somewhere they wanted to stay under the $3 million mark, but that's probably as reliable as my beat up Yugo with 200,000 miles.

Looks like he's got a little smile on his face right before he goes behind the plane.

He just realized he promised Marshall 3 or 4 million dollars and he might have to actually come up with it now.

"Upwards of 3 million dollars" could mean anything especially considering the 6 yr, 25 million dollar number that is floating around. You can announce a possible deal at 3 million while actually offering over $4 milion. That way you're competition (Texas) might lowball him. Of course, Texas could be doing the exact same thing putting out the we won't go over 3 million statement.

Marshall didn't come with him, although I don't think anyone expected him to.


That does not really mean he turned anyone down though, does it?

If anything I would have been surprised had he just hopped on the plane after the meeting.
