Remember how excited we all were when Wojo got an extension.

I’ll admit when I saw the timeline at the bottom of the screen say the press conference was 32 minutes long I thought there’s no way I’m watching the whole thing.  Next thing I know, the time line was at 31 minutes and I some how like Shaka more than I did 33 minutes ago.

Sure sounds like MU is not hitting the transfer market.

I think that’s been clear for a while

MU Eng

I felt the same way. At the start I was looking to see how I could fast forward and could not figure it out and ended being disappointed it was not longer. The words and confidence that Shaka shows is really impressive. I had crazy high expectations when was hired and he has not disappointed me. He has taken a far different approach than I expected, and he proven to be correct in how he wants to build a program. He was one impressive man, IMO.

It's the same leadership - Lovell and Scholl.

Lol.  I'd chalked up that dumb move to extend Wojo shortly after winning the lame Preseason NIT tournament In Year 2 to Pilarz and Williams.

Except it wasn't bait.  Real Chili was a big Wojo guy for awhile.  Finally came to his sense after about 6 years.  Kind of like you TAMU!

I don't think RC's post had anything to do with being a "Wojo guy" or not. I doubt he forgot how divided the board was during the last extension.

I heard the same thing. Someone said he has shamrock underwear.

Oh, and he really likes Skyline Chili.

Came away thinking Shaka would be a great guy to work with. I hope talented recruits would think the same. He's completely shattered my expectations for what MU could do the last two years, and I'm happy that the admin made their move. When do we find out the $$$?

Not until Marquette's tax filings become pubic. Probably around this time next year we'll start to get an idea of what double Big East Champs & NCOY is worth.

Even then, difficult. Need the contract. Deferrals, timing n such can much the “reporting” all up.

yep.. his initial contract was structured in a way that paid him very little year 1 because of the wojo buyouts, and Smart is in a position where he didn't "need" the money up front like other coaches would have wanted.

Plus i would bet the "remaining" first contract is probably moved around again for this new one. I expect the university signed this contract longer than "expected", albeit by 1 year until 2030, as a way to gain a sense of fanatical stability for the the rest of the athletic department. Plus shaka smart is young, he is 8 month younger than Shaheen Holloway, who was this "great young hire" 1 year ago.

That's amazing. It seems like Shaka has been part of college hoops forever, but as you say he's still a young guy. One with an incredibly bright (and prosperous) future!

Milwaukee Business Journal reporting this a.m. that Shaka intends to raze his 1930s lakefront house in Fox Point and build new on-site.

The building board's approval came a week after Marquette announced it would extend Smart's contract through the 2029-'30 season.

If he is razing his home, and building a new one ( costing I’m sure many millions of dollars) … it would seem he is here for a LONG time …

MU has  I think  found our version of
Jay Wright … a guy that will stay put, build a true program and ( let’s pray )
get to a few FF or even an NC

Agree.

The fact that the old home is being razed and a new one is being built on the lot is a much greater commitment in terms of time and energy related to the decisions involved (it's more than just a big $ decision) vs. simply buying another existing lakefront home. Those here who has had a home built know what I am talking about from their firsthand experience. To me, it is evidence that Shaka is thinking in terms of a nice, long stay. It certainly would not preclude a move to another school some year in the future, but it sure seems that he's planning to stay a long time.

Unless, of course, he's got his eye on the UWM job.
