Gregg Marshall being investigated for allegations of misconduct

Why wouldn’t Penn St go after Thad Matta

 

[Fishy]

Rumor is Danny Manning. Which would be a really good hire for them IMO.

Why would you think that?

He was 30-80 in conference at Wake Forest.

 

[Waquoit]

Wow. My cousin played and did well for the Shockers during the late 80's and 90's. He is pretty close with X man and apparently McDaniels influence remains strong in Wichita.

I wonder what the X-man would have done back in the day if some punk coach punched him in the head? MTXE Forever!

I think he will recruit the Midwest really well. Yes we was out of his league in the ACC, but he had some bad breaks with injuries and talent leaving earlier than he thought. I still think he could be a good head coach. I understand why there are skeptics.

Seems as if HCKO could have learned something from Mr Marshall. This guy assaulted people and he's walking away with 8 million bucks.

Yawn. Maybe if Wichita had Bobby Knight prior to Marshall, your comparison might make sense.

Wichita would have kept him if it wasn't for blowback from the public.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Fair take:

How so? Point was that KO knew he was on the way out, no question the school would have negotiated some kind of buyout to avoid exactly what has happened and if he had any sense in his head, he would have taken it. Again, this guy is getting $8 million and he assaulted people.

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

What an absolute freaking disaster. This dude is walking away with almost $8 mil lmaoo

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Seems like it could be a positive for Alterique. Familiarity with the interim without the abusive behavior.

Agree with this. No one's paying 8 mil unless they feel it's in their interest to do so.

Fired for cause vs a resignation in lieu of firing. Basically, WSU doesn't want to go through what we're going through, and has a sugar daddy to pay for it.

If WSU had an out, they wouldn't pay. We did.

The investigation into Gregg Marshall's conduct is now closed. The university will not be releasing any records related to the investigation, as they are considered "confidential personnel records," according to a Wichita State spokesperson.

The math is actually simple. Marshall was making $3.5 million and the buyout is $7.75 million over 6 years or $1.3 million per year. That means Wichita State could pay a new coach $2.2 million per year and come out even.

Yeah but why pay him anything when based on what we know it seems pretty clear you could fire him for cause.

As earlier posters point out, there must be info they really don't want to become public... like 8m dollars worth of info

It isn't that KO had to learn something the issue is 2 polar decisions by respective universities

 

[Hogoff]

Gregg Marshall getting paid to go away reminds us college sports keeps getting worse

The system is so broken.

Yeah, he never had an assistant named Glenn Miller.
