Lol posted at the same time. I'd say that I think AAU coaches/programs influence falls off a lot after the initial signing. Don't think they would have much influence on a transfer.
Marquette is actually one of the highest spending basketball programs in the country surprisingly. I bet the pay will be comparable.

I'm glad you can see 2 to 3 years in the future, maybe you should use that skill for more than posting about it on Gopherhole....
No one knows what will happen over the next few years. Sure we may be kicking ourselves, but we also may have made the right decision. Let's let it play out and not...
2 mil seems a little high but it's still near the lowest in the Big Ten, don't know why some of you seem to think it's a lavish sum. Not like he's making more than Izzo or something.
Going by this it will literally be the lowest in the conference (other than possibly Ferry at PSU)...
Gates also had 8 years as a lead assistant under a great coach in Leonard Hamilton. Pitino had 1 to 2 year stints at like 6 different programs as an assistant before getting the FIU job. I like Gates resume a lot more.
I dont think its really the record, just that their talent and potential meant they should've been way better. They had some serious players on those teams and never made it past the first round. That's pretty bad.
Yeah a guy being less interested in a job because one player leaves is pretty laughable. Liam would be here two more years and a new coach is not getting fired in those two years no matter how bad they are (barring scandal etc).
