allocating 1.4 mil for assistants, which is the highest in the big 10.

Perhaps Porter Sr doesn't need 400k to stay home. Maybe he'll do it for much less. Which doesn't seem unlikely if the rumors of him wanting to be back in Columbia are true.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

So Martin gets 1.1mil to fill 6 positions. What kind of - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:09:48

That's probably the total for base salaries, not total... - Deputy Dawg MU - 3/20 19:53:08

That isn't true....its 1.1 million for basketball specific - Mutiger MU - 3/20 19:15:12

It's just numbers. Let's talk about the product on the court - MizzouTigerz MU

- 3/20 18:31:27

You can't have the assistants' pool larger than the HC - tigerdb MU - 3/20 18:53:40

We enter the Bigs - raskolnikov MU - 3/20 18:35:47

And bring back former players, heard its been an issue - MoGold MU - 3/20 18:40:50

Agreed. - MizzouTigerz MU

- 3/20 18:52:42

400k, 260k, 140k, 100k, 100k, 100k(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 3/20 18:31:14

no - asutiger ASU - 3/20 18:39:02

ok, so 400, 300, 200, 100, 50, 50 - tigerinhogtown STL - 3/20 18:44:29

Is that the answer to my question, or how Martin should - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:33:19

just showing there is plenty to go around - tigerinhogtown STL - 3/20 18:45:14

Supposedly this is a very flexible portion of the contract - BOILERTIGER MU

- 3/20 18:29:43

So it's more of a minimum than a max? (nm) - zounami MU - 3/20 18:30:50

That's how it feels to me - BOILERTIGER MU

- 3/20 18:44:47

Hopefully that's the case. Sterk seems to know what he's - zounami MU - 3/20 18:51:31

I think I saw earlier today that KA's assistants were paid - zodiac6 JC - 3/20 18:25:11

Should be more. To pinch there is stupid as hell.(nm) - GA Tiger MU - 3/20 18:21:14

especially since Illinois's is $1.4M and that extra $300K... - zounami MU - 3/20 18:23:54

This says 850k - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 18:42:21

850k for the 3 assistants, 1.4mil total for all positions (nm) - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:45:58

$550k? must include trainers to work with the conditioning - tigerinhogtown STL - 3/20 18:52:04

And MU's is 1.1 plus either 200 or 300k for other staff - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 18:50:46

1.1 includes other staff(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/20 20:08:23

RE: especially since Illinois's is $1.4M and that extra $300K... - asutiger ASU - 3/20 18:37:59

But we are competing with them on the recruiting trail.... - zounami MU - 3/20 18:50:03

is it pinching? I don't know. What do other schools allocate - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:22:21

Good question. And maybe they can get what they - GA Tiger MU - 3/20 18:24:10

It's probable that this amount was something Martin - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:31:27

Things can change. Out of the conf. 40 mill, must be - GA Tiger MU - 3/20 19:37:32

I think it needs to be higher than that especially if Porter - zounami MU - 3/20 18:14:45

It must be pretty competitive. Illinois is apparently - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:19:03

Illinois...$850K for 3 on court assistants...remainder is - BigSkyTiger MU - 3/20 18:20:15

right. Which is apparently the highest in the Big10. My - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:24:53

It's not competitive with Illinois. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/20 18:25:47

1.1M vs 850k isn't competitive? Explain - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 18:38:21

I'm going by what the resident Illini expert tjwheeler... - zounami MU - 3/20 18:48:34

I posted links to both documents. Not my word(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 3/20 20:01:03

Underwood's contract $ are in the link I provided - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 18:54:59

$300k is significant. - tjwheeler UI - 3/20 20:01:40

And MU 1.1 for 5/6 plus 110K for other. 190K difference - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 20:29:38

As long as it doesn't prevent us from competing in bidding - zounami MU - 3/20 18:56:22

The $ are almost identical - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 19:00:39

That's not correct. - tjwheeler UI - 3/20 20:10:26

True,it's 1.1 +110k. A 190K difference isn't significant(nm) - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 20:25:44

where are you seeing 300K? I'm reading 1.1 + 110K (nm) - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 19:03:12

May be off as I can't find it, but even if 110 I don't see - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 19:16:03

Could be significant. Like I said above... - zounami MU - 3/20 19:21:36

200k is not significant enough to effect that if push - Mo Texan MU - 3/20 19:35:10

In a bidding war, I would give the upper hand to the party - zounami MU - 3/20 19:58:50

My understanding is they have 1.4 mil total. Technically, we - Yosa125 TAMU - 3/20 18:50:07

So with Porter Sr. - Evenflow MU - 3/20 18:16:13

Not really. He's a real coach. - zodiac6 JC - 3/20 18:22:23

To a degree, but don't know anyone can deny he - Mizzmi27 MU - 3/20 18:26:41

A ton of coaches get jobs because of player relationships - zodiac6 JC - 3/20 18:32:03

I'd say it's different, but agree it's not that "slimy" - Mizzmi27 MU - 3/20 18:38:50

and even if it's shady, who cares. That's the game. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/20 18:34:05

Would you support the hire if he had no kids, - Evenflow MU - 3/20 18:33:18

If Martin thought he was the best option, sure. - zodiac6 JC - 3/20 18:55:08

Oh, really. - Evenflow MU - 3/20 18:25:14

Yes.(nm) - zodiac6 JC - 3/20 18:29:03

MPJ and Jontay are worth every cent we spend on MPS. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/20 18:28:14

I guess Porter coached last year? - Evenflow MU - 3/20 18:30:03

This is crucial because it will jump-start the program and - zounami MU - 3/20 18:32:27

Yes, and it's about time we play the same game every other - zounami MU - 3/20 18:20:13

Pretty much - BOILERTIGER MU

- 3/20 18:18:58

Agreed. Will look very slimey if the Porters go anywhere - zounami MU - 3/20 18:20:50

I recall seeing his salary at UW was $300K plus a housing - BigSkyTiger MU - 3/20 18:16:04

Which is why I'm guessing it could be $400K or more. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/20 18:21:43

Even a total budget of 200k would have been - Evenflow MU - 3/20 18:11:42
