How long have you been doing USF's financial budget? Didn't know you were on staff there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, Tampa will be perfect! Come on PET, the guys happily married with four youngsters. He's certainly not a scumbag like Petrino or Pearl. He definitely hates the polar vortex that occurs annually around the Milwaukee area. I wasn't aware he was amongst the married. He can still work on a tan, so his head doesn't gleam so much under those bright sundome lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long have you been doing USF's financial budget? Didn't know you were on staff there. The more you know But in all seriousness, raising our basketball coaches pay from 1.2 million to close to 2.5 million, more than double our football coach, just doesn't seem realistic.

If they want a big name coach, they will have to pay big dollars. It seems they want a big name coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know if Harlan has convinced Judy to dramatically increase those capabilities, but to say, "we have no idea" is about as wrong as you can get.

That may be more realistic for us, but I like the idea of Buzz as our coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basketball doesn't make a much money (if at all) here. It's not a money sport, and probably never will be for awhile. We can't afford 2+ mil a year. I think some people are green and gold goggling right now. Edited March 19, 2014 by Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
