Well, I'm not sure what the hell kind of "new developments" came about, but nothing really was reported that we didn't already know. I'm glad that Charlie Moncla is going to be involved with the hiring process. That says to me that the RCAF is going to play a key role in getting the right guy here. Also, good to see that Scott Farmer is going to be the man (pretty much) on this hire. Good things coming for basketball..

Also, just so you folks now, I'm getting the RAW video of the press conference up in a bit. Like you said foofoo, nothing today Earth shattering, but news none the less.

$175K, chicken feed. To get what we need to bring this program to what it use to be might take $3 to $5K with incentives.....

You mean $300k - 500k? If so, I'm with you..

I'm not exactly sure how much money Walker and Farmer are going to be able to work with, but the way Walker made it seem it will be a sizable increase from the 175K and could very well compete with the 300-500 ya'll are suggesting

no way they will b in that ballpark

[ManAboutTown]

the league average is above 250k.. They have to be in that ballpark.

They will be in that ballpark. Money will not be an issue if the hire meets the criteria set forth.

[LifeTimeCajun]

i hope that is correct, cause that means we are heading in a positive direction in athletics
