It is a nice to see him looking out for his coaches. All of them need to remember where each of them started from the bottom.

When he was at Kentucky.. that was one of the things I liked about him.. he stood by his coaches

The Tubster doesn't really have much clout... his record at Minny isn't that stellar.

Recall his assistant coaches include his son. Trying to feed the family. He really has done nothing to deserve big money.
