Why is the $250,000 extra in pay not a factor for you guys? Keith is not Shaka Smart (34) or Brad Stephens (35) he is 54 and I don't know if he is going to get a lot of opportunities at that age. If the contract is for seven years -- we are talking $1.75 million dollars extra (minimum) over the next seve years.
By the way what makes you thnk if Keith were at Duquesne McNeese doesn't stay at Duequesne? I'm not sure if McNeese transfers if five of the kids on the basketball team weren't shot around the time he was supposed to arrive. Wasn't he already committed to Duequesne? Does Zeke end up there too if KD was at Duequesne? Heck does Zeke even end up here without Boals? |

You are a glass half empty guy despite the fact that our glass is totally full. Wow glass half empty because I was pointing out the facts of the situation? I'm happy he is staying but I can't believe there is a single person on this board that would forgoe a $250,000 raise. By the way I've watched this team since the Huggins era. We've made significant progress since then, but I'll continue to say they haven't met expectations lately. We've already had that discussion. |

I'm concerned you may be right even through next season. We MAY become the only MAC basketball team that recruited a high school All American and didn't win an NCAA game during his time at the school. I don't think that is too far fetched to say. We beat up on a crappy MAC and bad OOC teams. Lose to Duquesnes and CSU's of the world. KD will be going on his 9th season next year. On the surface, we have beat a bunch of bad teams. Can anyone describe what is below the surface when you really dig deeper? -------------------- "...you want it to be one way. But it's the other way." --Marlo Stanfield, The Wire
