Good luck to Mo! Would be nice to see him get a Big 10 Job!... At the end, of the storm, there's a golden sky. And the sweet silver song of the lark. Walk on, through the wind, walk on, through the rain, though your dreams be tossed, and blown. Walk on, Walk on with hope in your hearts, and you'll never walk alone!
I'm behind you 100% Bradley Braves, You'll Never Walk Alone! BEAT STATE! -
For the record, Jim Molinari did have a Big Ten head coaching job. He was the Interim Head Coach at Minnesota for most of the 2006-2007 season after Dan Monson was forced to resign on November 30, 2006. Jim coached the team for the remaining 24 games of that season.Originally posted by BUFanatic View PostComment

Also...I just read that Flip Saunders turned down the Minnesota job, and they are resuming their search. One name they seem interested in is Gregg Marshall, but they'll have to wait until at least after tonight to talk to him.Comment

Several articles say Tubby was making "$2 million per year" from his job at the University and had a 5 year extension put in place last fall!
But he made substantially more as a Big Ten head coach than most other coaches can make because
he was paid for his appearances on TV, on the Big Ten Network, in commercials, radio & TV shows...etc...
It is stated by some references he actually was making over $3 million per year!
So Tubby's $3 million per year over 5 years would equal $15 million - compared to Gregg Marshall's $1 million per year...
That's a $10 million difference in the next 5 years. Pretty tempting even if you don't like Minnesota or cold weather!
As Dan Monson said even after he didn't satisfy the Minnesota press or fans and stepped down...that he was still quite sure he made the right decision since the big increase in pay over any other job he'd ever had made him & his family secure for life - and that was an important factor.Comment
