I'm betting the addidas deal is part of Hurley's negotiations.
His last contract stipulated that they be terminated ASAP.
Never happened.
That contract is able to be viewed as public information.
We saw CFL's extension, back when.

Re: Dan Hurley Signs Extension w/ URI, Spurns St. John's
I would agree BAR, but I'm sure there's a little more money there, maybe in gradual increments over the life of the deal.
This deal might have to be reworked again, especially if URI makes the Dance next season, and maybe wins a game or two.
It's just the nature of the beast. Look at Shaka's situation. Every year, he's tied to some big opening, this year it's Texas.

Re: Dan Hurley Signs Extension w/ URI, Spurns St. John's
I'll admit that it bothers me that we have to extend our basketball coach's salary every time some other school shows an interest. I thought that this was the third year of Dan's seven year contract. Extending him next year after a good season would have made more sense to me. He could say to recruits that he is committed for their four years. While Dan is well on his way to fulfilling my expectations when he was hired, he hasn't gotten us to the NCAAs yet. Actually, he is close to where Baron got us after three years. I think this move says something about the state of our program at the present time.

Re: Dan Hurley Signs Extension w/ URI, Spurns St. John's
Ahh, I can't stop posting! Lavin did a lot of good things here, no doubt. He changed the viewpoint of St. John's and ran a clean program (disciplined players). He would've continued to be the coach if he just continued to recruit. Thing is he got lazy and complacent. Wasn't in any gyms, scrambling late, etc. Local coaches also hated him. This is a good article on it.Seawrightspostgame wrote:Do people really think Chris mullin is going to make St Johns better than Lavin did? Come on. Many a man has tried with the johnnies.

That's where Mullin will have a big advantage. He is well liked by a lot of basketball people and he works extremely hard at everything he does. His staff also looks like it may be better. Lavin is a proven weak in game and x's and o's coach. Maybe Mullin can be better. He was after all in the mix (some say offered and turned down) two NBA coaching jobs and has been in NBA front offices, including as a GM. He has connections, can sell NBA experience and can sell he won't leave St. John's (stability was a problem at times w/ Lavin also).
The potential is there. And at worst he's a guy who everyone can get behind.

Re: Dan Hurley Signs Extension w/ URI, Spurns St. John's
I think it would be fair to read the timing as either hurley was notified that Johns was going with Mullin and Dan was given the courtesy of announcing his extension first, or that Dan notified Johns he was staying at URI and Mullin had already agreed to take the job if Hurley didn't, so Johns responded quickly in hiring Mullin. Could honestly believe either version, but it doesn't really matter. We got what we wanted, and you got a guy you obviously wanted. Whether you wsnted him more or less than Hurley is just a historical footnote.STJKory wrote:Just to clarify, this is what our insider is saying on Mullin:

He was offered a paycut, mainly due to performance. Financial difficulties is something the school is having trouble with though, having less enrollment than previous years.

Stopped by the PC board for some good laughs. That has to be the dumbest fan base in the country. Amazed so many of those guys don't have anything better to do on a weekend none the less. So the facts that we know is this, St John's reached out to Dan Sat morning, Dan signed an extension today and St John's hired Mullins today, anything outside of that is all speculation at this point. Don't really understand anybody saying anything other then at at this point.
