[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 114138, member: 1776"] Gregory wasn't going anywhere in less than 4 yrs period due to Hewitt's contract. The other item GT fans sort of have to get over is extensions. Just because GT in the past has given out a couple of bad extensions doesn't mean you have to do it in the future. You can make an extension without it being overly tying. Let's say Gregory wins 19 games and MBob decides that enough to keep him. That doesn't mean he has to open the bank. You can do what UGA did with Fox for example. You extend 2-3 yrs, gives a modest raise, but no increase to the buyout. That would allow you to keep a coach if he appears to be moving in the right direction, but not tie yourself to the coach if it turns out to be a mirage. You have to get out of the idea that an extension means a big financial commitment or big time commitment. Neither has to be true to a large extent. Now DRad did do the big extension to Brownwell this offseason giving him an extension and a big buyout ($3M the next 2 yrs). But he isn't at GT anymore. [/QUOTE]
