To be fair, a couple people jumped on him for that.
It is not ridiculous to think he would entertain doubling his salary

I can't keep up with this board right now. Can somebody fill me in on why the Archie Miller talk has died down? If it indeed has...
Its ridiculous to think anybody comes here unless Second and Chalmers tells you otherwise.......yikes
To be fair, he wasn't the only one saying similar comments. But nice to know there are some competent UVA fans older than 25 who have knowledge of what this program can be.
Also to be fair, if he's followed us the last 5 years he isn't far off.

Well, they don't sound too worried. Also, they don't think much about UI, Champaign and our bball history. There memory only goes back about 10 years.

Pressure is on JW to land a program-changer with Martin going to Mizzou. They'll be compared every December and March.

Just seems difficult for me to believe a coach would set up a meeting for another job a day before playing in the NCAA tournament.

It's the reality of what we've become to our peers. This is not an easy hire.

If all he wants is a head job then Whitman should just bite the bullet.....
Im sorry it was too easy to let go ;(
Yep, they aren't even in Wichita today if they play tomorrow. They would have left on Tuesday.

He's definitely the one with with coolest head right now.
But I don't get why he doesn't think Phil Jackson isn't coming here still.
Who are our peers here? Other universities fans?

Wouldn't be the coach himself. This has to be worked out between athletic departments as well.

You were pretty adamant that we'd be in the First Four, so.....I'm just gonna go ahead and think for myself here.
Is this Marshall coming in or JW going to Wichita to offer him the job? This would be the best hire that JW could get right now.

It appears that Miznoz simply asked, what do we have to offer you to say yes right now without talking to anyone else? He throws out 7 years at $3.5M, thinking it was a starting point and they said, OK. CM walks away astonished, and then wonders how much further he could have gone. Yes, I just made this up, no insider.
