I am praying this isn’t true. My heart breaks for him and his family right now. I feel sick.

I mean Kenny Payne was the previous highest making 950k before the Knicks hired him. This doesn’t shock me that now we’re at 1M for top recruiters.

Tom is going nowhere.

Not sure how leaving would benefit Kimani at this point. He just needs a few more years then a HC gig

Did we lose our Assistant Opening thread?!?

Honestly for Tom it won't barring a huge offer. He loves Tolland and his kids are in the area and everything. He's 56 years old. His next move will be to a golf course in Florida, I'd think.

Certainly the potential that someone could offer Kimani more money, but there are very few assistants making 320k+. Any substantial raise would be him in the top 10 best paid coaches in the country potentially.

Which I think he deserves. But obviously I want him to stay to help our program

Yeah I meant Kimani. I'm only worried because of how much they were willing to pay Antigua. They might be willing to pay 500k to keep a strong New York connection for all we know. Would put Kimani even closer to a head job as well.

Seems like a lot of Kentucky fans think this means they will be getting Tyty Washington. Could be.

One of their assistants also just left to go to Bobby’s staff at ASU, so maybe he follows him there.

Edit: Also just remembered that Kentucky had also been in the mix for Marcus Carr. Sounds like they are probably going to pick up someone else relatively soon, just not sure who that will be. They’ve been linked to quite a few guards recently.
 
Calipari must be feeling some heat and why not when you look at his rosters and how relatively poorly his teams have fared in the tournament.

Geniuses like him usually don't overturn their coaching rosters and hunt for mid-major shooters to improve their teams. Maybe the Coastal Carolina point guard will get on his roster after all..............
 
Interesting as well as Mack at Louisville basically fired most of his assistants as well including Murray and Gaudio. Bluegrass state shakeup.
