Curious as to what makes Matt Abdelmassih so good as a recruiter? Like what does he do that separates himself from other recruiters to classify him as great. Does he go to a lot of games, have good relationships with coaches and players? The fact that he's younger?

Genuinely curious on his methods

Genuine, calculated, relentless

It's probably similar to Timothy Olyphant's character Kelly, (a porn director) in The Girl Next Door, where he scans the room and upon observing cheerleaders and football players, says:


Kelly: Man, there is some talent here .... How do I get these ideas? It's like a gift, you know? It's like I can't control it.

Mullin will definitely keep 1 guy from Lavins staff

Anyone else hearing this?

Just can't see that happening

Kentucky assistant Barry Rohrssen's contract, obtained by Newsday, runs thru 6/2016. Pays $375k, but no buyout. Just needs Cal's permission.

 @jimbaumbach  ·  33m 33 minutes ago
I shouldn't even term it as Cal's permission. Contract simply states Rohrssen agrees to not pursue job elsewhere without telling Cal first.

Just can't see Cal standing in the way

He would need a raise over that though as more expensive in NYC tan KY

wasn't dunlap getting $500k?
Dump Keady's 200k + in the pot. :)

really?  damn, $200k is a boatload for someone to be a "mentor" to the coaching staff.

Heard Keady was making more than that LOL

The 200 is accurate.
However there was other expenses that came into play.
Remember who broke the Slice news

Whitesell would be my only guess. 

that said, Lavin's staff is much more than just the coaches. could be anyone from dobo to admin assistant.

Maybes it's Zendon as video coordinator or something similar

Too dead pan serious, killing me - you do know I was playfully joking, considering Coach Keady pulled his doll of a  wife.

If Barry is making 375 in KY, he will need to make 500 here and that would be just to stay even, sonce he will have to pay NYS and NYC income tax and the cost of living is about 20% greater in NYC fpr comparable housing, restaurants, etc.

If you look at the Cost of Living composite average, Lexington is 92% of the national average, Queens is 159%, Brooklyn 181.7%, and Manhattan 216%.  So almost double.  I know there are a lot of other factors, but it is much more expensive to live in NYC than Lexington.

If anyone thinks slice will do this purely for the money, I don't believe that's the reason. The money represents some respect, so the 92% is 407k equivalent, and Queens' 159% is 596k.  I don't think 596k is going to happen.  I would guess a first assistant like Slice could bring 450-500k? Or are the heavy hitters going to make up any extra?
