That's a damn good hire.
Also, FB head coach and both BB head coaches are African-American. That's a statement, too.
Yeah, that's who I was referring to when I wrote "both head BB coaches."Niele Ivey as well

I wouldn’t be surprised if the money per year was close, but giving him 7 years was the difference.Did Jack actually drop a bag for the Bball program? I am dumbfounded
Hopefully those Shrewberries take us back to the MemberberriesThese Shrewsberries tastes like Shrewsberries!
Anything less will be a huge disappointmentSo what’s a realistic expectation for the next five years?? 3,… 4 final fours??

Damn if that's accurate....quite a statement made by ND about basketball and it's importance to the athletic department/university.Being reported we are paying Shrew over $4M per year, which would make him one of the top 10 highest paid coaches in the country.

Love it, he’s an Indiana guy through and through. For you guys outside Indiana it’s absolutely accurate the love small towns have for basketball programs![]()
Micah Shrewsberry tells me why he left Penn State for Notre Dame: Indiana means basketball and home | Jones
The Indiana native got a big boost in his basketball coaching salary. And some might question that he's making a lateral move to another "football school." But it's the pull of his home state where people love and understand the game that matters most. I spoke with him Wednesday night.www.pennlive.com

100% agree.High school football in Texas and high school basketball in Indiana are basically the same thing.
