It looks like mike Anderson and Melvin May be taking their game to New York City!

That's a great get for NKU. He will keep them at the top of their conference there. And he will have a couple pieces to work with.mikesyracuse1 said:

Details from Chris Beard's new contract with Texas Tech:
- He will be paid $4.2 million for the 2019-20 season. (He had been scheduled to make $2.9 million under his previous terms).
- If he is Red Raiders' head coach on Sept. 1, 2020, he will get a $750,000 retention payment. That will be in addition to the $4.3 million in basic annual pay he's scheduled to receive for 20-21 season.
- If he is fired without cause after the 2019-20 season, he would be owed a buyout of $19.125 million, subject to offset from future "coaching-related" employment -- but no specified duty to mitigate
- If Beard terminates without cause in first year, he will owe school $6 million if he goes to school in Big 12 or state of Texas, $3 million if he goes to NBA or school outside Big 12 or the state.

As the nation turned its attention to the Final Four in Minneapolis, UCLA was looking farther east. The search committee engaged Tennessee's Rick Barnes in a series of intense negotiations to finally fill its coaching vacancy.
Barnes had been a popular pick all along among some Bruins donors, and the veteran coach could be touted as a hot commodity after having just been given the Naismith Coach of the Year award following a season in which his team won 31 games.
After a series of back-and-forth discussions, Barnes agreed to take the job for just short of $6 million per season, with the Bruins footing his $5-million buyout, according to two people familiar with the talks. But Barnes subsequently had a representative contact UCLA, asking for more money.
UCLA pulled out of the discussions at that point, even after Barnes said he would accept the previously agreed-upon terms in an attempt to salvage the deal.

Webber had a falling out with Michigan and his Fab Five teammates and apparently didn't speak with any of them for years. I wonder if that relationship has improved any since articles like this one came out a few years ago.mikesyracuse1 said:
Howard to Michigan. Now he needs to add Webber, Rose, Jackson, and King to his Coaching Staff. Ha

On Thursday, speaking with Detroit's 105.1-FM's Matt Dery, Rose said that occasion that brought all five players under one roof hasn't done much to repair a fractured relationship.
It's still broken.
"I've got to sit down and have lunch with Chris before he sits down and has lunch with me and (Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon about a possible reconnect between Webber and the university)," Rose told Dery. "You can't cry over spilled milk. Whatever happened 20 years ago, if you aren't happy with your life and you're living under a freeway and you aren't successful, then I can understand you being bitter about what happened.
"But if you're doing your thing on TV, hosting All-Star weekend, really having a successful second career, I think it's time to mature and let it go. And unfortunately Chris hasn't let it go."
Webber's involvement in the Ed Martin recruiting scandal kept himself disassociated from the University of Michigan for 10 years -- by mandate of the NCAA -- beginning in 2003. That NCAA-imposed disassociation ended last May.
