....deal is dead. Over all things, money! Guess I was wrong about him caring about he actuallly made on his resurrection job. No idea how far apart the parties were, but I guess it's on to the next batch of candidates. Ps--I'm praying my source is off on this one, but I don't think so ;(

That sucks unless Siena was lowing ball completely....how much money does the guy need?
Unless it's just cover for Siena that they did not want to go through with it. Actually makes it a little easier to stomach if he's just too expensive.
Go hire Beilein or Becker and get done with it.
Forget McNamara, Spinelli, Warren etc they're not going to hack it.

I posted all this before I saw he actually called the TU reporter to address his interest. Wow, it was so close to really happening. He must feel like he could get a lot more money somewhere else. Damn, the money and interest he would have generated in this area 🤦♂️

Siena is like Charlie Brown...Lucy keeps pulling away the football. |

No way this was dead over money. He's not dumb so he wasn't expecting millions from any MAAC school. The deal is dead but it wasn't over money. It's a great cover though so let's roll with it. If Becker and/or Beilein are still in the mix I'm still ecstatic.

Just thinking...Petino really was interested but Siena said no...for both sides to save face just say it was the money...
Sorry Glen...I was typing this when you posted yours...great minds...

We offered enough for the salary and the assistants, but came up short on the hooker fund.

Nah the cash story is just too convenient this smells like an out and let’s both walk away saving face.
We still have a decent list of “potential” candidates Becker, Beilein and Caputo.
If I’m betting my money is on Beilein being hired. Just think a lot leg work was done while they were working on ditching Jimmy. We will see.
I’m also hoping the Becker rumor has legs. He’d be the proven candidate (winning, recruiting and coaching).
I’d actually be ok with either but my preference is Becker then Beilein.
I just could never see Siena pulling the trigger with Pitino. Glad this ended we really need to put this to bed and make a decision in earnest.
