By Poisonut on 13:42:27 03/18/24 [In reply to "Tbh, I'm still surprised by the Diebler hire" by 45Buckshot, posted at 13:13:20 03/18/24] OSU assistants made $1,125,000 last year. The opportunity to become Diebler's right-hand man and triple his salary may be too good to pass up simply to be a HC at a small G5 regardless of how much success he's had. He may have very well hit his ceiling there. If it's not resulting in what offers to further his career a move to OSU assistant may provide that opportunity. We'll see. : I really thought our big new fancy AD would spend some $$$. I like Diebler, I don't have a problem with it, maybe there just was not a big splash hire available. So go with the hot new coach, makes sense. : Still just kind of surprised. If he had won 3 games or more in the tourney, no brainer (I think if he had got by the Illini, we would also have won at least the next game also). So it does feel like the decision was made before the tournament started. : Not for or against it, necessarily, still just kind of surprised. Not sure what to think really. Unless, as someone posted below, the plan is to spend the money now or later on someone from the portal? If the returning players stick and add another scorer or post player, seems to have to the makings or a top 3 or 4 B1g team? Or maybe they are eyeing an expensive assistant?
