Nice. Kudos to the team and the coach I think might be a dud. Beating Memphis when it counts gets you a lot of loveComment

I had an offline discussion with Doc about XB. Doc lamented how some don’t want XB on the team. I said that there absolutely is a place for him on the team. Perhaps just not a 30mpg kind of guy. But if he can bring some energy and effort as a role player. I’ll live with his performance.Originally posted by another shocker View Post

I really feel the same about Beverly. Yup, turnovers are an issue but I love the way he’s not afraid to take it to the rack. Remember under IB we had no one like that. Just dribble dribble then jack up a three. Hope HB is back next year.Originally posted by WuShock16 View Post

Honestly, we need more PG options that aren’t them. But if either Beverly or XB develop a decent 3 pt shot, they would be so incredibly valuable. What hurts them is that everybody sags off them with no care.Comment

I was wondering if HCPM would be getting any bonuses for each conference tournament win, so I took a look at his contract (https://www.wichita.edu/about/public..._contracts.php) and no bonuses for individual wins, but there is a huge incentive to win the conference tournament:
Conference Tournament Champion - 1 year contract extension with a guaranteed compensation of $1,600,000.
There are also bonuses for wins in the NCAA tournament, such as $25K for making the round of 32 and $100K for winning the NCAA tournament. All of the bonuses are listed on the last page of the contract (p. 21).
The 1 year contract extension for being conference tournament champion is in the contracts of other head coaches hired by Saal, such as Nooner and Green, although the compensations are less than Mills and more in line with their annual salaries.Not responsible for damage from posts that sail over the reader's head.Comment

oof, not a fan of the automatic extension for the exact reason we are seeing here. While these are fun wins .. the year as a whole wasn't good.Originally posted by Ted Lasso's Neighbor View PostComment

Like there is a real risk that WSU is going to run all the way through AAC tournament. But you know what, if they would actually do it, it would put a whole different spin on this season.Comment

Yes and no. Would going to the tourney be good. Yes. But is going to the tourney as likely a 13-14 seed worthy of a contract extension? absolutely notOriginally posted by SB Shock View PostComment

If he wins the AAC tourney as the 12-seed, the 1 year extension would have been earned.
Can’t belittle tourney appearances at this point, IMO.The AssmanComment

Not belittling it .. but a contract extension? no .. just no. That is stupidComment

Where were you when they were hiring the interim coach with no experience and who would only win the AAC because he didn't play any good teams due to COVID-19 schedule disruption? That is just STUPID.Originally posted by Stickboy46 View PostComment

What the heck does that have to do with this? lol. Yes that was a weird year. That year we also won the REGULAR SEASON title which encompassed 2 full months along with beating Houston and the coach won Coach of the year. In hindsight was it dumb? yes, but there would be a lot more reasons than there is to give a coach that finished 12th in the league a contract extension because he won a couple conference tournament games.Originally posted by SB Shock View Post
The only Q1 game in this entire tournament is FAU. So if FAU would get upset before we play them, we would enter the tourney not winning a Q1 game all year ... and yet again, we would be a 13, probably a 14 seed (our net is 150). So yet again, giving someone an extension for that would be absolutely stupid. Give him a bonus .. absolutely... but an extension? no.
If you wanted to say extension for a Sweet 16 .. sure, I'd buy that. They would likely have to at least beat a couple really good teams or go in with a high seed to get that.
Likely a moot point since I don't think our legs are going to last.Comment

What is so hard to understand? You wanted to give an interim head coach a 5-year extension for beating Houston.Originally posted by Stickboy46 View Post
