Not sure if posted...according to this it wasn't as much of a pay cut as earlier reported:

Buzz was interviewed by Andy Katz yesterday.  Katz asked him why he took a $500,000 pay cut.  Buzz did not correct him and said "it's not about the money."

Fact:  He went to a worse job for less money.

Says Williams and Cronin employ the same agent.

I thought Scuzz didn't have an agent?

Maybe MU ought to hire that Whit Babcock for AD.  He seems to know how to get stealth, clandestine deals done!

Not in Buzz eyes. We say the same about Vander's decision. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

I was amazed to read in the Journal this morning that the past coach at VT was paid only $245K last year.  Big step up to $2.3M for Buzz.  VT is spending some serious ACC TV and football money on basketball
