Glad you are trying to get state spending under control. You certainly have your work cut out for you. And I don't disagree that a successful basketball program pays big dividends. I just don't want to see us losing our heads over one guy because he's the current hot commodity. $1.5 million base plus some nice incentives is quite a leap from the $300,000 base he's making now. Let's say DB has three strong candidates. So how much more do you think Hurley is worth than the other two who are rated similarly? There is a value comparison to be made. It is not about going for the cheapest or being penny wise & pound foolish. We all want UConn restored to its former heights. We just have different views on how we get there. [/QUOTE]
