JMU Inks Mike Houston to a 10 Year Extension

Really curious if he stays past Saturday. I had the impression that GT would not do it the way he did last time if he could do it over again; you'd sure think the AD would have GT on speed dial asking for advice.

My god Culhane has such a boner for Mike Houston and JMU.

Both of the coordinators are up there in age.

That's what I thought too. Probably why there isn't much talk about hiring him on as HC. Seems like most of the talk is trying to figure out how to keep him on as DC, but that seems unlikely if they are going to hire a new HC from the outside. You'd think whoever that is would want to bring in his own staff.

ECU's job just opened up, looks like Houston is about to get paid with the bidding war going on.

Insiders (Culhane) reporting that ECU is indeed now after MH (from Twitter)
Guy knows how to work it. I’ll give him that

ECU is a legit G5 job, he is definitely gone now and I bet he is at power five program within five years.

Add App St to the list depending on what Louisville or GT do.

Funny line from a guy at CSNBBS:

If MH goes to ECU, then Houston(the university) will play in a stadium named TDECU, and ECU will be coached by a guy named Houston.

Actually, it kind of sounds like he could be waiting for JMU's counter-offer.... Well, you gotta admit that it's not impossible.

Didn't we see something like that with the SDSU WBB coach?

JMU is absolutely at their ceiling, NO way they could go 7 figures.

Come on! Their students can always pay a few more fees.
