I will be estatic if he stays. But, I'll look at him just a little bit different from here on out.
I will be interested, if he stays, as to what his contract is. It wouldn't surprise me if its more for his assistants getting paid more and with longer guarantee contracts. JMO
 
The thing is, if he does stay, his intentions will never be disclosed first-hand. Fulmer and Barnes will put it out there that there was nothing to the rumors, but that the two of them knew that it presented a good opportunity to expedite getting together to discuss the state of the program, assistant salary pool, etc.
 
Quick! To the airport!

I know there are a lot of rumors, but this may be the only option Barnes thought he had to get Fulmer’s attention concerning staff pay. If that is the case then you have to tip your hat to him for taking care of his staff
Would definitely be a power move and a reasonably understandable one, IMO. I’m not sure Barnes will ever have more leverage against the AD than he does now. If he sticks around he may have a couple better teams than this year’s team, but I’m not sure he’ll put together one that’s more beloved than this one was.

Humanity lost something when it decided that it was ok for people to just PR their way out of awkward situations.

I’ve read articles in the past talking about the struggles UCLA and other state schools are having hiring coaches because the state is in such a budget crunch (want to interject politics so bad!!!lol). Because of this they struggle attracting quality coaches at all levels. Now this pertained specifically to football, but I’m wondering where UCLA is getting all these resources? Boosters for BB only?
What year are you reading the from? California has a budget surplus....coaches are paid partly from state funds and the rest is made up from Athletic Foundations. At least that is how it was broken out at the Colleges I worked at.
 
Well he would have a higher ceiling at UCLA with more support and a more rich history. Time to see if this is about money or about something else!
 

So wait.
Fulmer wants to get Rick what he can and has to go through the proper channels to do so?

So there's a possibility that he doesn't "just care about football" and thinks everything else is garbage?
Like he just focused on FB 1st because it's the bell cow and most in need of triage?

Interesting.
