The coach in question has ties to NC State, and already has a relationship with many of our players. I don't see him sticking around as our head coach for long though. 3/28/2011 11:16:31 AM |

It's Donnie Jones, nigga.
Man, he's never made it higher than the CBI...
However, he was coach at Marshall and is from West Virginia so I have to like him.
Sike, we're actually getting Richard Pitino or John Pelphrey

good write up on why shaka might stay @ vcu.
Quote : | "VCU athletic director Norwood Teague has had a number of conversations with Smart about his career path, even before the run to the Sweet 16, Elite Eight and now Final Four.
"He values greatly how much we support his program, and we do more than a lot of high majors," Teague said Monday morning. "We want to this to be in the same fraternity as Xavier and Dayton, in these only basketball schools. Shaka values the basketball-only experience. It's a big deal, and he understands that."
Teague said he met with VCU president Michael Rao about being more aggressive.
"I don't think Shaka would just go for a money grab. He's not going to do that; I know people around him, and we're going to do all we can to keep him," Teague said. "After we won last night, I think he's more likely to stay. This is a different program now. This place will never be the same again."" |

from that same article:
Quote : | "Teague said Smart makes a base salary of $325,000 with bonuses that push him to $350,000. Incentives have already garnered him $500,000 so far this March. Teague said an annuity also pushes Smart past $500,000. He said Grant left VCU making a base salary of $750,000, before Smart was hired two years ago.
"We will be aggressive again," Teague said. "We couldn't pay what Alabama did [estimated at $1.8 million]. But for Shaka it's going to have to be a really good one." |
