This is a short one…so, while you are here take a look around and have some fun.
I don’t live in the Triangle anymore, so I don’t have the opportunity to listen to a lot of local sports radio. But, from what I can gather, Taylor Zarzour of 1090AM has done a very commendable job of covering the NC State coaching search.
Evidently, this morning Zarzour reported the following:
* Confirmed the obvious that Calipari was in Raleigh last night to visit facilities.
* Discussed Cal’s strained relations with Memphis’ AD and frustration with not being paid market value without so much prodding.
* Shared that NC State refused to offer Calipari a contract in Memphis. Told Cal that if he came to visit that he would be offered a contract.
* NC State offered the contract that pays $1.7 million a year with incentives that can get him to $2.0 million. The incentives were not ridiculous to achieve.
* I did not hear Zarzour, but my friend told me that Zarzour shared that he would guess/predict that Calipari would accept and be NC State’s next coach. That is not the same as the people on the idiot boards saying that Zarzour reported that Calipari was going to be our next coach.
* The answer will come today.
Hold on tight.
