Looks like Tang took less money to get a baller assistant coaching staff. Smart move, will just get an nice bump and extension when he makes the S16 in a year or two.

I think they are paying Tang what makes sense for both parties, huge raise for him and still a relatively cheap contract for KSU athletics. Just less than I thought it would be.

But you think CK is going to leave kstate if the basketball coach makes anything within 1 million of him? Where's he gonna go? What school is going to hire CK at what he makes now or more? He's done an OK job, but no one is knocking on the door for him

This would make sense, pay the guys you want from Baylor enough they can't say no.

Hopefully keep Shane and the core of the remaining roster, bring in some stud big-man transfers. Instant tournament team.
