Message: [QUOTE="Paesano, post: 2539932, member: 5631"] How much would Ollie make as an NBA assistant? How much is it worth to him not to be fired and have stories leaked? We can strike a deal for less. Then, when you figure in that Hurley will get paid less, the school's total expense is not that much more. It can be done. I didn't look at the details but his 5 year contract was worth 17.9 mill. 3 years of that is 10.74 mill. If we can strike a deal for half (good for both sides), we are looking at 5.37 mill. Hurley is paid 1.1 mill today. If we double that, he would get 2.2 mill or 6.6 mill over the next three years. 6.6+5.37=11.97 mill. The real marginal cost of this switch is 11.97-10.74=1.17 mill. Worth! A honorable man would do what's right. [/QUOTE]
