Let's be realistic about how much Mizzou will... - Downstate UI - 2/18 18:38:45

$3 to 3.5 million could land a pretty decent coach(nm) - ERB KC - 2/18 20:26:53

Money should not be an issue. Find the guy we want and - zounami MU - 2/18 20:37:35

Probably true, but we are in a new era. SEC money and... - Lerxst MU

- 2/18 19:24:18

I would venture to say, 1.8- 2.0 with incentives to make 3 - MU-TULSA MU - 2/18 19:16:04

That would be pathetic. I hope our AD is thinking big, - zounami MU - 2/18 19:23:45

I will be amazed if they double the salary of a candidate - MU-TULSA MU - 2/18 20:22:58

Let me guess: You think Illinois is willing to spend more... - zounami MU - 2/18 19:13:35

Not sure what he thinks, but it wouldn't surprise me. - tjwheeler UI - 2/18 19:15:59

Lovie Smith could be the next Charlie Weis - ERB KC - 2/18 20:28:13

LOL (nm) - zounami MU - 2/18 20:36:57

What is Lovie Smith making? I assume over $4 million per - zounami MU - 2/18 19:21:24

21 million over 6 years - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:27:02

What's Odom's $ for staff?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/18 19:28:31

3.8 million which is 11th in the SEC, but 19th nationally - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:34:57

Who would you like to see UI hire (i.e. your top 5 list)? (nm) - zounami MU - 2/18 19:35:09

Is #5 "McDermitt" Greg McDermott? If Illinois wants him then - zounami MU - 2/18 20:06:58

What is the connection to Monty Williams? - Maty Football KC - 2/18 19:56:51

RE: What is the connection to Monty Williams? - tjwheeler UI - 2/18 20:00:01

is Jankovich being discussed for the Illinois job? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:54:48

Nope. - tjwheeler UI - 2/18 19:57:38

I don't know if his success this year is him or Brown - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 20:20:30

Gee, if only MU had a billionaire donor that liked hoops... - Lerxst MU

- 2/18 19:33:34

Did someone say they didn't?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/18 19:36:43

Why wouldn't we spend $5M if that's what it takes? (nm) - zounami MU - 2/18 19:10:17

3 million a year is plenty to get a very good coach. I - recruiter MU

- 2/18 18:50:42

We won't even spend $3 million - Maty Football KC - 2/18 18:40:15

Why not? Head coach is THE most important thing for an - zounami MU - 2/18 19:12:39

Because we're Mizzou - Maty Football KC - 2/18 19:15:09

1) New AD... 2) We paid Quin Snyder a top 10 salary, and - zounami MU - 2/18 19:17:54

Quin was hired almost 20 years ago - Maty Football KC - 2/18 19:23:37

MA was also paid top 15-20 salary - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:30:59

Not when he was hired - Maty Football KC - 2/18 19:36:48

That was my second point, with all new leadership - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:39:30

The past does not dictate the future, especially with a new - zounami MU - 2/18 19:38:39

Actually the past is the best indicator of the future - Maty Football KC - 2/18 19:42:04

Oh, then I guess we'll pay a top 10 salary right off the - zounami MU - 2/18 19:44:38

I think your right about this... - Downstate UI - 2/18 19:03:05

How on earth would you know? (nm) - Lerxst MU

- 2/18 19:25:52

I said "I think" which obviously means... - Downstate UI - 2/18 21:57:59

That would be ok - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 18:46:18

Maybe. Except saving a mil or two is pointless. - GA Tiger MU - 2/18 18:55:50

The interest has to be mutual - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/18 19:06:14
