Re: Two Random Questions

There's been a bit of talk about buy-out clauses for future coaches. Those are usually percentages of the remaining contract, though, so if we want a bigger buy-out to either deter programs poaching our coach, or to at least sooth the pain when it happens, then I would think we'll need to have a big...

Re: 20 Game Conference schedule a Mistake.

I've got a theory that it could actually end up being a pretty good thing if the conference has a good showing in the tournament this year. I'm feeling more and more that the tournament is where the reputation is built (although I think East-coast bias looms large).

This is a good thing if the MWC can maintain a reputation as a good conference.
