calipari is not what state needs this guy is shady and i have not been overly impressed with his teams at memphis. even this years team who was good but their was no way they were gonna win it all. and i know we as state fans want a man who can get us to the title game and win championships, nationally and in the acc.

4/10/2006 11:38:28 PM

wtf mate?

4/10/2006 11:38:39 PM

both stem from the fact that at memphis, top grade recuits WITHOUT some issues probably are not going to be interested in memphis. so, memphis either had to have a shitty program, or allow lower standards for their recruits in the sketchyness department.

i would think that here, he wouldn't have to recruit sketchy guys unless they are REALLY good.

"Three high-ranking N.C. State sources confirmed that the school presented Calipari with a lucrative, long-term contract offer that was similar in structure -- but not identical in financial numbers -- to that of Texas coach Rick Barnes, who on Thursday turned down an overture ($2 million-plus) from the Wolfpack that would have made him one of the five highest-paid coaches in college basketball. Barnes subsequently received a $400,000 per year raise from the Longhorns. The sources said the offer to Calipari was for more than $1.7 million per year in base compensation (including salary, radio/TV money, shoe contract, etc.), and that the contract would be worth more than $2 million per year (on average) if the coach stayed at NCSU long enough to earn a "retention bonus" or bonuses built into the latter stages of the deal. "It's his job if he wants it," one NCSU source, a former member of the Wolfpack Club board of directors, said Sunday afternoon. Oblinger, Fowler and Calipari could not be reached for comment. Calipari's long-time agent, Craig Fenech, declined to comment. According to a coach who's close to him, Calipari was extremely impressed and a little bit surprised by the size of State's offer. "He used the word 'overwhelming,'" the source said. "He said, going into the meeting, he was just going to listen. He came out and said he doesn't think there's any way Memphis can afford to pay the kind of money N.C. State is offering.""

I have major reservations about his shadiness factor, and I've mentioned it numerous times. I'm going to be extremely nervous for a couple of years until I see what kind of program he runs here -- if he comes.

4/10/2006 11:42:02 PM

You should take a look at Georgetown for an informative trip on lowering standards for athletes

4/10/2006 11:42:36 PM

IF he is our new coach and IF his Press conference is tomorrow, he should hold it in the brickard

4/10/2006 11:42:44 PM

^^^ Frankly, I could care less [if he's sketch] if he still hangs a banner.

I mean, Calhoun does it.

From a poster over on PackPride…

I know everyone is going to say this is my first post, so believe it or not. I have watched this board for a long time. I would not let my Wolpackers down. This one I have to tell. I saw NDWOLFPACK post about the flight at 11:16. I live in Brier Creek and busted my butt to get out there. I ran into Southern Jet and all was empty. About 10 seconds later Lee Fowler walked in the door and behind him was about five guys including JOHN CALIPARI. My heart dropped. John was wearing a black sweatsuit and looked worn out. There was another guy that also had black hair combed back in that group of five. I told John we need ya and he smiled. Lee Fowler was the only wolfpacker. That its boys, would not let my wolfpackers down. What a high, I’m still shaking.
