    nothing to substantiate this, but if he and his staff are there, he's likely going to take the gig. You don't bring your whole staff there to see the campus. You bring the staff to look for places to live.


    Just my thoughts....NOT ANYTHING MORE.

    I was telling someone else, he may not be the long term answer (meaning he prolly won't stay 10 years), but it would be good for the rivalies, dook and the tarholes would hate us even more.

    4:23 p.m. Calipari, staff not visiting N.C. State today
    By Gary Parrish, Memphis Commercial Appeal
    April 10, 2006

    John Calipari and his staff are in Memphis and have no plans to visit North Carolina State today, a source close to the situation has told The Commercial Appeal, contradicting an afternoon report at ESPN.com stating Calipari and his staff "were on their way to Raleigh" to tour N.C. State’s facilities.
    As of 3:40, the source said Calipari and his staff remained in town. Still, it’s unclear whether the University of Memphis has presented Calipari with a concrete counter to N.C. State’s offer that is reported to be near $2 million annually.

    The Commercial Appeal learned earlier today that multiple UofM boosters are working with athletic director R.C. Johnson to compile a package that could push Calipari’s base salary to between $1.5 and $1.7 million per year. That combined with the $2.5 million annuity Calipari can collect if he finishes the 2009-2010 season may be enough, the source said, to make the sixth-year Tiger coach reject the offer to replace Herb Sendek at N.C. State.
