hahahhaa. The Gays are so awesome.

He lands in 15 minutes in Tulsa. He either tells his team tonight or I think he's staying.

Racer or MAC.

Assistant Coach Milhouse

He's going to Dallas immediately after.

 

[SkinsNDeacs]

Can I be cheerleader?

 

[DEAC22]

He's going to Dallas immediately after.

What's the purpose of the stop in Tulsa? To pick-up wife and assistants?

-22

 

[ilovecarpet]

I wouldn't mind having Ricky P, Jr.

 

[Deacondoc]

if he is flying to Tulsa prior to going to Dallas it should mean he is going to tell the players that he is leaving for Wake Forest in person before it breaks over Final 4 Weekend

Breaking news of a DannyManning hire over Final 4 weekend would be very good and much needed good press for Wake Forest Basketball.

Of course if he decides to stay with Tulsa and that is broadcast over the Final4 then even bigger slam on WFU athletic department

Unless he's getting off and the rest of the WF contingent is heading to Texas.

From a Tulsa sports reporter:

Cayden McFarland ‏@caydenmc 6m
Source close to the program insists that Danny Manning is "still thinking about it," and no decision has been made.

Cayden McFarland ‏@caydenmc 28m
Hearing Manning was offered more than $2 million by Wake Forest. TU offer: 1.2, plus pay raises for assistants.



Shewww... $2mil+ seems like A LOT.

 

[BobStackFan4Life]

He's going to Dallas immediately after.

What if he says, "I just need to get off the plane for a second and stretch my legs" and makes a run for it. Do we chase him down and beg him to come back?

The plane leaves too quickly for him to tell team. Maybe Manning isn't going in plane to Arlington

 

[Wakeforest22890]

Sweet Jesus...over 2 million?

God.

 

[Ayo]

2+ million for Danny Manning? WHAT THE FUCK?!?

 

[Wakeforest22890]

$2 million is a ridiculous amount of money for Danny Manning. That's NOT the right price for him.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

 

[RJKarl]

Maybe bring in Moonz or Irish as another assistant just to piss off RJ.

Moonz would just get us cigars and wine. Irish and I would get along fine. I'd take part of my salary to revive the Ice Capades just for my buddy.

 

[Wakeforest22890]

I'm going to wait and see if that figure is right. That's too much.

 

[RJKarl]

2+ million for Danny Manning? WHAT THE FUCK?!?

That's the going rate in the ACC now

I'd be surprised if it would have been much under $2M.

 

[Ayo]

2+ million for a guy with 2 years of meh head coaching experience. Speechless.
