This is why the Valley keeps earning the reputation as a "mid-major". Guys come here and use it as a stepping stone to something better. Or so they think. Is it a better offer at 4X the salary if they fall on their face and get canned?
I don't know the details. Did Drake make a counter-offer?
A look at some of the others who used the MVC as a prop to something else:
Nolan Richardson (to Arkansas)
Kevin Stallings (to Vanderbilt)
Matt Painter (to Purdue)
Bruce Weber (to Illinois)
I like what I see from our coach (Jankovich) at ISU, but I'm really afraid that if he has another good year and makes the NCAA playoffs next year, he'll be the next to hit the road.
