Ohh I'm not positive but I thought it was always there. I could be wrong. Either way whoever his agent is that was able to get that written in his contract is a genius.

I lost interest in that subject, but I thought he earned a 'tack on' year for any year he won 20 games OR made a post season tourney.

That is why the post season tourneys, even the minor ones, got so contentious. Some cost money (say 50K) and would trigger the one year extension.

It was known (I have this on reliable account) that Heather did not want his contract extended so no post season.

And, of course, we have a 'new sheriff' in town so who knows.

Now that I'm 'talking' I do understand that Murphy had a better relationship with Christian. There were problems between Heather and others in MBB such as Murphy reportedly Brown, etc. (I was surprised, but not shocked when Brown was let go). I had heard vibes...

To 'close the circle': I have no idea what the relationship between the new AD and Murphy is.

That said, in athletics, like most anything else in the world of work, relationships between an employee and his or her superior is important. One day one boss and relationship and then a new boss and a new relationship.

I sense that CC and Scott are on the same page. As far as MBB, we are in the off season so I wouldn't know...
