LOL! He is a heck of a coach, and while I will admit that NMSU fans (myself probably included) can be a bit sensitive, he does deserve to be compensated considering his record at NMSU. We (NMSU fans) have been jilted so much in the past from NOT paying enough that I can understand why a lot of us are that way.

As for the buyout, I think you have to realize it is a negotiation. Since we probably are not paying him what I think he is worth, we have to give in other areas. This may just be that one area that we can give on, and it doesn't really cost us much. I'm not sure buyout money really affects the next coaches negotiations much.

I’d say he gets a pass for a less stellar COVID year record and deserves whatever NMSU can come up with in compensation.

If you are talking about wins in the NCAA tournament, I do see your point. That said, when you get high seeds, it is pretty difficult to get that W.

I am hopeful that with the new additions (yes, that includes Tarleton, IT) that we, as a group, can improve our seeding in the tournament that can help lead to a W or two.

GO AGGIES!!!!
