If a big-time program offered Coach Young 4x his current salary
And 4x the NIL, would he take it? Would he take Lawal with him?
Seems veteran coaches with solid experience are showing their value. Guys like Kelvin Sampson, Rick Barnes, Bruce Pearl are finding success while ACC coaches are retiring or getting fired.
Remember when we thought Frank Beamer would never leave?

important than the almighty dollar. Mikes wife has made big bucks for years. He is where he wants to be doing what he wants to do right now.

He has no financial need, he’d retire before leaving

Would never happen. But sure, can’t imagine why he wouldn’t.

Lots of people who are “financially set” keep looking for more….
The examples are endless.

I wouldn't dare lump MY in with the 'aforementioned', though.

Didn’t say anything about “greedy”…..
Who are you to say who is or is not “financially set”? That’s an individual decision. Even if a person believes they are set, an opportunity may come along that you just can’t pass up for one or another reason. I believe I’m financially set but if someone came along and offered me $8M a year to do something I like doing with a guaranteed contract and a big budget to ensure success, I’d probably take it. And I don’t think that’s “greedy” in the least. I further expect that “most” people agree with me.
