  • Smart turns down NC State

    Virginia Commonwealth coach Shaka Smart, who led the Rams to their first-ever Final Four appearance, has agreed to terms to remain at the school, despite an offer from NC State, the Charlotte Observer reported.



    Asked if NC State had pursued Smart, Teague wrote "Yes, they talked to him and made an offer. We countered and he is staying!!!" according to the report.

    NC State is starting to look a little like Oregon last year.

    With all the coaches that have been mentioned for the job - and now they get jilted by a young coach who probably was offered a ginormous raise. The job is starting to smell a bit tainted. Throw in unrealistic fan expectations and (reportedly) a b with an itch to work for and they may find themselves settling for whoever will take the job ala Oregon last year.
    The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
    We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

        Shaka's salary went up nearly 1 million per season, to $1.2 mil from $325k.
