Murray State $155k
Norther Iowa $152k
Southern $125k
Oral Roberts $115k

Rex made more than 8 of them…
Is Mercer worth the $250k risk with what he has coming back at FAU - and the possibility of taking a step later that is much better timed?
No. And it wont get him to the tournament quicker either…….

He saw his former boss "take the money and run" to the Private Christian (Methodist) School…….
Fast forward and what is Doherty's percentage in conference play at SM-pew? TERRIBLE. Like 15%…
Garbage.
Sooo, here's Rex's "offer" to bail for the *Bling*:
MUCH smaller Private Baptist school in *gulp* Macon, GA?
Lesser Facilities
More rural and less desirable that Dallas
Harder to recruit
Not the top of the A-Sun by any means
RPI 9 spots lower than where he is now
Leaving would be the WORST mistake he could possibly make…
Sit tight…have another solid year or two in the SBC and let a bigger player make an offer…

Maybe he has less confidence that he can have another solid year or two than you do.

From what i have seen of their facilities, they look nice…..well nicer than the inside of the Burrow atleast. As for more Rural, thats a good thing to raise a family….i mean dont get me wrong i love all the gangs we have around here but i wouldnt want to raise a family in south florida…….
and ok so look foward…..he sits tight and then in 2 years he interviews and goes some place else…..that isnt going to change the reactions of the fans…..we will feel like he has left this team that he has built……

The problem I have is that we get these coaches who say they're going to stay here for a while and do what it takes then after 2 years they leave. Now I understand thus is the nature of the business but don't preach about how you're going to stay here and do what it takes to win, in fact don't say anything at all. If Doherty and Rex didn't say anything about wanting to stay here and loving it here and not wanting to leave then I'd have no problems if he left for something better.
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!
