It was last week. I've heard 10 years 92 million and also 8 years 85 million.

Either is fine with me since it's not my money. Also heard we can go more if we have too

10 years 100 mill, his choice of buildings to be named after him, and we replace the chairs and sanitize AH to make sure Woodson doesn't rub off on anyone in his staff.

I think it is definitely #1….and why would Dusty demand such a low buyout? Maybe he was up front with them and said if IU opens up and they offer I will likely take it. Or maybe we are over-estimating his interest, maybe he has his eye on another opening?

Michigan would have never hired him if he told them he was going to leave after one year if another conference team's job came open in my opinion. The low buy out is on Michigan's end.

Two options:

  1. Dusty demanded/negotiated it.
  2. Michigan wanted an "out" in case Dusty was a bust.

take your pick.

Pure speculation but maybe Dusty just placed a huge bet on what he could do.  Not push for a large buyout in the initial contract.  Have a really good year and now can sit at the table and say OK boys, what are you going to do for me today.  He has leverage especially with our opening.

I’m going to put some chum in the water for Brad lovers….is he really so irreplaceable for the Celtics? Aren’t there other guys capable of doing what he is doing? Not saying he isn’t good at what he does, but some people have made him sound like some kind of irreplaceable basketball management genius!

Michigan has absolutely no advantage to a low buyout other than it got them a great coach.

I hope it's the 8/85M if this is accurate. That's ~$1.5M/year more than the other deal plus not as long of a commitment if it somehow didn't work out. So a better deal for both sides, imo.

What do you mean on their end, how does this favor them? There is a second buyout that protects Dusty from them letting him go early, it is much more than $4M

OK, who do you replace him with?

The first rumor of Mike Woodson being considered was a dark day in american history. 
I did not take it seriously cause I thought it was a total joke. I didn't think they were really dumb enough to hire him.

Yes Glass told Quinn he would hire Mike if they agreed to let Crean go. Then went behind his back to Archie and never even interviewed Mike

That’s pretty much what I was told, which might explain Woody telling Dolson et al 4 years later that they would have to come to New York rather than him coming to Bloomington if they wanted to talk with him etc

Just lock him up. That would be a top 5 ncaa salary. Maybe tops.

I'm sitting close to Scott Friday night so I'll report back. If he has a farmers tan then I know he was at the beach

I'll be sitting close to him as well.
